Meeting Schedule and Attendance

DSpace Developer meetings are a time when Committers and interested Developers can discuss new software features, upcoming releases of DSpace software, and generally plan out the roadmap of DSpace. All meetings are public. We welcome anyone and everyone to attend, speak their opinions or just listen in on the discussions. Please note that we archive all discussions (see Meeting Archives), as a service for those who are unable to attend.

DSpace Developer meetings take place on the following schedule:

  • Every Wednesday at 20:00 UTC/GMT in #duraspace IRC channel
  • All meetings are held for 1 hour (although, admittedly, discussion sometimes extends beyond that)

See the world clock to determine the meeting time where you live.

Meeting topics often include:

  • Recent updates on upcoming DSpace releases, bug fixes or features
  • Reviewing of recent reported issues/bugs/feature requests (see JIRA Cleanup Sessions for more info)
  • Occasionally we vote or make decisions on upcoming DSpace technology plans/roadmap (see Developer Voting Procedures for more info)

If you are unable to attend a meeting, please feel free to add your own notes/comments to the meeting's wiki page.

Developers Meeting on Weds, April 21, 2010

Agenda

  • Announcements
    • Tim on vacation April 22-25 (no availability), and at out-of-town meetings April 26-30 (limited availability)
      • Any volunteer to lead next week's meeting (April 28)? Likely main topics include 1.6.1 updates (and discuss any issues that need feedback/discussion), GSoC project announcements/planning, further JIRA review (if not caught up by then).
    • GSoC Update
      • Projects are being decided upon (join 'dspace-gsoc' mentors list if you want to have input). Likely 4 will be accepted. Accepted projects announced on April 26.
  • Up for vote / discussion
    • JIRA Upgrade & Merger with Fedora JIRA??
      • JIRA 4.x has a much improved interface & many nice new features (we're currently on JIRA 3.13).
      • DuraSpace is proposing to upgrade us to JIRA 4.x and merge our JIRA with Fedora's to form a single DuraSpace JIRA.
      • DuraSpace also suggests migrating our usernames into the DuraSpace "Crowd", which means your DSpace Wiki and JIRA will share the same login/password.
        • Crowd is another Atlassian product, which provides single sign-on to all Atlassian products (e.g. Confluences, JIRA, etc.)
  • Updates on DSpace 1.6.1 bug fix release (Kim Shepherd)
  • JIRA Catch-Up – starting with issue DS-517 (and getting as far as we can).
