Developers Meeting on Weds, June 9, 2010

Agenda

Any Announcements / Additional Agenda Items?
GSoC updates
- Unit Testing Project will be meeting in #duraspace at 21:00UTC (immediately after this meeting).
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).
- Search for recent JIRA Issues

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
