  5. (Other topics?)
• Board Review & assignments:
  • Backlog Board - Are there any tickets here stuck in the "Triage" column?  We'd like to keep this column as small as possible.
  • 9.0 Project Board - Assign new PRs to volunteers to code review and/or test.
  • 8.x and 7.6.x Maintenance Board - Known bugs can be found here, along with any backported bug fixes.
• Upcoming Topics: (Let us know if there are topics you want to discuss in future weeks)
  • Enable the use of multiple database Sessions per request: https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/pull/8932  (We need to find a way to move this idea forward)
  • DSpace accepts external identifiers (DOIs and such) from submitters, and manages others (DOIs again, Handles) itself.  Should these be stored in separate metadata fields? what fields? what schema?  Various bits of DSpace have disagreed on the answers.  See also https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/pull/1006.
