Task List
This task list has been updated as of our meeting on Oct 22, 2019. The tasks are numbered for easy reference, but are not necessarily listed in priority order. During this meeting we worked to re-summarize current work status so that we can align this task list with the DSpace 7 Estimation Process (and as such, estimate any we feel should be considered for 7.0 release). NOTE: Keep in mind, just because a task is listed here does NOT guarantee it will be completed for DSpace 7. Some of these tasks may need to be delayed for a future release.
= task considered "completed" (unless bugs or issues are later found)
= task is incomplete or has further work to be done.
= task that may be delayed or postponed for after 7.0.

- Best Practices around Entities in Collections (NOT: this may just be early documentation). We've suggested in the Preview Release to structure Collections based on Entity Type (Person Collection, Projects Collection, etc). We should better document and formalize these best practices.
- Should we eventually consider hiding these Collections which only serve to store Entity Types?
