3. DSpace 7.0 updates
   1. NEXT DSpace 7 UI MEETING: Thursday, January 12 at 15:00 UTC (Angular2 Mtg) and 16:00 UTC (REST Mtg)
   2. Any objections to merging this soon? 
      1. In order to allow us to refactor/upgrade our "dspace-api" and REST API to latest Spring and/or Hibernate, we MUST first remove XMLUI. Currently, Apache Cocoon has forced us to run an outdated version of Spring, which has forced us to run an outdated version of Hibernate. See this comment in our Parent POM: https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/blob/master/pom.xml#L32
   3. Call for participation in DSpace 7 (Angular and/or REST teams) will be coming in January.  Keep an eye on the lists if you or your institution want to get involved!
   4. Suggestions to create a DSpace Slack organization (with subchannels for DSpace 7 work, as well as other topics). IRC has been sparsely attended as of late, and Slack seems to be used widely across most organizations (or for other projects).
   5. DSpace 7 Working Group (2016-2023) - Watch this page for initial ongoing updates on meetings, etc.
4. Reviewing JIRA Tickets or PRs
   
   1. Please feel free to bring any that need eyes / immediate discussion
   2. JIRA Backlog of "Received" ticket
   3. All open PRs
