Agenda
Regular Items
- JIRA Catch-Up – starting with issue DS-937
Discussion Topics
- DCAT Dicussion of DS-1021 : Add integration with an online document viewer (like flash based FlexPaper) - Amy Lana (of U of Missouri & DCAT Member) will be joining us
- Thoughts on a "DSpace Developers Virtual Summit" Week? (potential weeks include Feb 13-17, Feb 20-24, Feb 27-Mar 2)
- Summit would consist of a daily video/voice chat meeting (1-2 hrs likely, via Google+?) between developers/committers
- Open format discussion, but seeded with a few larger/provocative questions
- Example question: "How do we move the DSpace API forward to better support multiple UIs, potential new UI development, & avoid UI logic duplication?"
- Tim would attend each day, but rest of folks would likely be rotating in/out based on their schedules (limit of 10 simultaneous attendees, based on Google+ limitations).
- Each day we'd publicly post (to dspace-devel list) a summary of that day's discussions. This would allow others to provide comments/feedback & to encourage others to join in following days
- At end of summit, if things went well, it may or may not be followed up by a "Virtual Hack-a-thon" (week or two) to rapidly prototype/build any new projects that were brainstormed.
- Highlight Richard Rodgers' new GitHub project on Modernizing DSpace Kernel/API: https://github.com/richardrodgers/mds Fork it and help out, if you are so inclined!
- Other topics?
Additional Ongoing Topics
- Brainstorming Features/Changes for 3.0. Can we work towards development teams around any of these projects?
- Larger DSpace projects which seem to have a lot of recent support:
- Moving towards a Common "Business Logic" / Business Services API. (I.e. avoiding duplication of business logic in all UIs)
- Metadata For All (i.e. metadata on all objects), SubTopic: Getting us up-to-date how we use Dublin Core / DCMI. (Support from DCAT)
- Other DSpace projects receiving mention recently
