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, June 9, 2010

Agenda

  • Any Announcements / Additional Agenda Items?
  • GSoC updates
  • DSpace 1.6.2 updates – when will it be released?
  • Discussion Topics:
    • DSpace-Fedora Integration FAQ – At OR10, DuraSpace will be making an official recommendation that we work towards integration with Fedora (we'll also have time to discuss this at our Committers/Dev Mtg on Mon, July 5 before OR10). This is a very initial (unadvertised, but public) FAQ on the topic. We'd like any feedback/suggestions from all of you before we advertise this more broadly.
    • DSpace Services Framework – It's been two weeks since our Special Topics Meeting. Are we any closer to making some recommendations on moving forward? Has everyone had a chance to review the current Services work in 1.6.x?
  • JIRA Catch-Up – starting with issue DS-528 (and getting as far as we can).

Following this session there will be a special meeting to discuss the GSoC testing project: http://wiki.dspace.org/confluence/display/DSPACE/GSOC10+-+Add+Unit+Testing+to+Dspace
