    Program Update

    Christine Di Bella

    We're working on the next release of ArchivesSpace, which will likely come out at the end of September or early October. It will have some accessibility fixes, additional improvements to reports, and a few bug fixes. We also have some larger pieces like the addition of ARKs to OAI-PMH harvests that are in testing and may be available for the next release pending the results.

    Thanks to UAC members for helping us hone the data collection form for the member directory and roadtesting it! We officially launched it in mid-August - 50+ responses so far. We're aiming to have full representation of our member community, so please encourage your Member Reps to respond for your institution if they haven't already (and encourage colleagues at other institutions as well). Directory form is at https://tinyurl.com/aspace-directory

    Christine Kim is presenting a webinar about the new implementation buddies program and the directory on September 26 at 1:00 ET. More info. at http://archivesspace.org/archives/3175


    Sub-team Reports




    Development   Prioritization

    Lydia Tang

    Dev. Pri. is back to meeting monthly.  In addition to Terra Gullings, we welcomed William Modrow to our roster and thank both of them for joining us.  We're excited to hear that Accessibility is getting a major development push for this upcoming quarter after we worked with several reporters to pass their tickets on accessibility earlier in the year.

    Documentation

    John Zarrillo

    In August the Documentation sub-team put out a call to help determine the community’s needs in terms of improving documentation. We distributed a survey across several listservs, the ArchivesSpace blog, and held a Twitter chat. 9 users responded to our survey. We will be assessing the responses to determine how to proceed this fall. In general, those who responded were most interested in technical aspects of the application, such as the API and reindexing.

    Reports

    Alston Coburn and Nikki Thomas

    The Reports sub-team met at the end of August to share information on the history of the group with its new members and discuss the change in leadership.  We are currently testing the addition of the RTF export to reports and we tested the new Resources List report.  


    Testing

    Brittany Newberry

    The Testing sub-team tested v2.5.0 in early August. Held office hours at the Annual Members forum. Published a blog post on the sub-team in late August. Tested v2.5.1 Jira issues and feature requests this month. In total, the sub-team has tested features and functionality of ASpace along with 29 Jira issues.
