Developers Meeting on Weds, February 23, 2011
Agenda
- First 20+ minutes: JIRA Catch-Up – starting with issue DS-682
- This week we will attempt a "Quick Review" format (2 minutes per issue, with extensions only as necessary), as we need to try to review JIRA issues more quickly. (More details on "Quick Review" format at JIRA Cleanup Sessions)
- Search for all Unresolved Issues (since DS-682)
- Reviewing the next DCAT Request (based on Proposal for a New "Feature Request" Review Process)
- DS-638- -check files on input for viruses, and verify file format (DCAT relevancy/interest vote: +4)
- Revisiting 1.7.1 Release
- We are starting to see some 1.7.0 issues coming in, that we may want to fix sooner rather than later:
- Some more important issues include:
- DS-785 : SWORD deposits fail when ingest events are fired if Discovery event consumer is configured
- DS-821 : AbstractMETSIngester creates an item before adding descriptive metadata (Causing incomplete emails to sent out when deposits occur via SWORD)
- DS-675 : XMLUI doesn't start if the error level in the log4j.properties is set to DEBUG
- Do we feel it's time to schedule a 1.7.1 release?
- NEXT WEEK (MARCH 2): Tim will be out-of-office. Any volunteers to lead next week's meeting, or lead a special topic discussion?
- Next "Special Topics" Meeting??
- Discuss improving how DSpace handles Metadata (From past meetings discussions, this seems popular). Several ideas mentioned recently:
- Updating to current DCMI standards: DS-805
- Creating a new "dspace" internal usage schema (for administrative, or non-DC metadata)? Formalize the "dc" schema to be strictly valid QDC/DC?
- Metadata on all DSpace objects (not just Items)
- Discuss forming a "Documentation Management Team"? Or reworking our procedures for managing/reviewing/approving Docs on the Wiki.
- Discuss improving how DSpace handles Metadata (From past meetings discussions, this seems popular). Several ideas mentioned recently:
