Late January / Early February: 7.0 "Preview" release (not feature complete, but should include an early version of Configurable Entities) Preview release will be rescheduled.
By late April: 7.0 "Beta" release (first feature complete release)
By late May (prior to OR2019): 7.0 "Final" release
All dates are goals/estimates. For later dates to make sense, we need to meet the first goal.

Preview Release Planning for Entities (Configurable Object Models)
What is left to do prior to getting a PR to `master` branch created?
Reviewed our schedule. Preview date not yet set (by DSpace 7 Working Group). More discussion on that on Thurs
Reviewed our tasks for "master" PR
Assigned review of Google Docs & SQL Dump
Tim will create PR to master
Lieven has updated Bram on Entities effort, and he will be bringing it to the first meeting of the Marketing Working Group (tomorrow)
Reviewed outstanding PRs
Raf working on PR#2332. Should be ready by tomorrow. Tim will re-review once ready
Once PR#2332 is merged, as long as no conflicts appear, PR#2331 will also be ready to merge. The main dependency between the two is in an Integration Test
Paulo will give Angular PR#354 a quick test, and then it will be ready to merge too
Next Steps for this group
Tim will create "configurable_entities" PR to 'master' and detail review process for DSpace 7 Working Group
We recommend concentrating PR review on whether the "configurable_entities" PR
Aligns well with the DSpace 7 best practices & goals (It should, as we've been keeping them in mind)
Has any major bugs discovered
Has any major conflicts with DSpace 7 codebase
Other feedback is obviously welcome. But, obviously we cannot re-implement Entities without major consequences to DSpace 7 timelines/goals – and if discussion came to that level, we'd need to bring in Leadership & Steering Groups.
If DSpace 7 WG members want, we can schedule a separate "Discussion Meeting" for a deep dive / demo of the Entities PR (likely sometime during week of Feb 11-15).
Next meeting of DSpace 7 Entities WG will be on Feb 19. If there are no topics to discuss, we may cancel, as we are now more dependent on DSpace 7 WG and Preview Release
One of our next topics will be to work on Entities creation via Submission process, but that's currently dependent on the Submission UI being merged into "master" by the DSpace 7 WG.
