15 min | 3 discussion questions: - Request to re-think Instance types
- Should we propose a by-law change?
- Performance when working with AOs with large numbers of direct children
| | Three discussion questions:
- Request to re-think Instance types
- We've received a request to re-think how ArchivesSpace handles Instance Types. The rationale is that Instance Types are semantically meaningless (e.g. exports as a top container "label") but potentially misleads users into thinking this it's a place to record format/genre information.
- Would any sub-teams have interest in looking into this issue further?
- Should we propose a by-law change?
- By-laws are here: http://www.archivesspace.org/sites/default/files/ArchivesSpace%20Bylaws--Revised%2020160120.pdf
- Two areas that could be clarified:
- defining affiliate member and program liaison roles (in Section 4)
- defining process for handling out of cycle vacancies (in Section 2)
- Also potentially the bullet in Section 4 that calls out the responsibility of TAC to "review functional enhancements and priorities identified by the Users’ Advisory Council." → but maybe we leave this one for further reflection
- Listserv discussion re. application performance when working with AOs with large numbers of direct children
