Agenda
Regular Items
- "JIRA Backlog Hour" : Every Weds at 19:00UTC in #dspace IRC we will be working together to tackle our JIRA Backlog of "Received" tickets. This regular meeting will continue until we've been able to catch up on our backlog.
Discussion Topics
- Pull Request Reviews (first 10 minutes or so) - Starting with #203
- DS-1609 : DSpace 3.2 OAI-PMH Functionality needs JDK 1.7 (Java 7)
- DS-1188 : Change how default collection page works. Comment on patches available for both JSPUI and XMLUI (thanks Keiji & Kevin!). In both cases implementation slightly differs from the specification in the ticket, but is still much more user-friendly than what we've had before. Does it require more work? Should we merge it anyway and perhaps keep improving it?
- DSpace 4.0 planning
- Need to finalize a 4.0 Release Schedule & advertise it. Suggested schedule from Andrea Bollini:
- Feature Freeze: Oct 20
- RC1: Oct 31
- Testathon: Nov 5-6 (should this be Nov 4-15? usually we aim for two full weeks)
- RC2: Nov 21
- Final Release: Dec 4
- Tim question: Do we need to set a "goal" a few weeks (or month) before "Feature Freeze" for developers to submit their New Feature PRs before?
- Other topics for discussion?
Additional Ongoing Topics
- Brainstorming Features/Changes for future. 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)
- AuthN & AuthZ issues, including: DS-1566 and developer meeting on May 2, 2012
- Other DSpace projects receiving mention recently
