Goals
- Find alignment on the plan leading up to Open Repositories 2019 in Hamburg
Background
Alignment / Decisions from last meeting
- We need a plan with actions, goals and associated target dates, aimed at marketing for DSpace 7
- Popular use cases, and how DSpace 7 improves on them, are powerful in marketing
- Facts that the SG endorses, are powerful in marketing
- We need a more general approach for DSpace Marketing on the longer term. The group did not reach agreement on whether this can be open ended, or whether this can have a finite timeline

- Lead timeline discussion
| | The DSpace Steering Group is meeting directly after this meeting to consider the current DSpace 7 release timeline. Tim notes that this is behind schedule and will likely be updated later today. - "Preview" release by early 2019 (around Feb). The "preview" release may not include all eventual DSpace 7 features, but gives the opportunity for early feedback from users / testers. One key feature of this "preview" release will be to show off an early version of Configurable Entities (see also DSpace 7 Entities Working Group).
- Beta release in first quarter of 2019 (tentative date - may change). The beta release will be feature-complete and provide an opportunity for more extensive testing / debugging / banging on the system.
- Final 7.0 release prior to OR2019 (tentative date - may change). Our goal remains to have a final release to show off at the OR2019 conference in Hamburg. This date is still tentative as it depends heavily on meeting earlier release goals.
