    Info

    Brief explanations of scheduled projects:

    agents feedback: the agents module was substantially expanded for v3.0.0. Now that people have had some time to get familiar with the changes, there are improvements to be made based on feedback.

    custom reports: Ability to create and save custom report templates, in addition to the canned reports that come with ArchivesSpace. Customization will be limited to the data elements that can be included and will not involve layout and formatting

    EAD3 importer: Review of EAD3 export to ensure it still meets needs. Revision if needed, then mapping and import functionality for EAD3 that mirrors EAD3 export.

    PDF improvements: Improve mechanism for public user interface PDF and bring staff and public interface stylesheets closer together. Improve accessibility of PDFs across the application.

    spawning: Right now there is a single spawning map for the application and it does not take default values into account. Users would like more control.

    Solr upgrade:Moving to a new version of Solr requires a move to non-embedded Solr - there will be both technical work and community communication/education required.

    staff interface upgrades: Many infrastructure upgrades that are needed for future staff interface improvements - Bootstrap 4, Rails 6, new date picker, revisit Selenium tests, reviewing Javascript packaging/dependencies
