Alignment / Decisions from previous meetings
- We need a plan with actions, goals and associated target dates, aimed at marketing for DSpace 7
- Popular use cases, and how DSpace 7 improves on them, are powerful in marketing
- Facts that the SG endorses, are powerful in marketing
- We need a more general approach for DSpace Marketing on the longer term. The group did not reach agreement on whether this can be open ended, or whether this can have a finite timeline
