Roll call and actions from previous meetings

All

Actions:

  •  Max Eckard and Patrick Galligan (Unlicensed) - Integrations sub-team to examine the two Github common script repository options a bit further and if they feel ready, set one up. They have a placeholder repository - keen to keep independent from personal accounts and affiliated with TAC.
  •  All TAC members  - encouraged to review the draft FAQ document and share your thoughts on an appropriate platform for this type of FAQ. Team is still keen for feedback particularly on platform.
  •  Sally Vermaaten (Unlicensed) - send out Doodle poll for 16/17 call time
  •  All TAC members - if you'd like switch sub-teams, email Sally by Aug 18

30 minDiscussion - ArchivesSpace Github re-organization proposal Mark Cooper (Unlicensed)
ArchivesSpace Github re-org - draft proposal

Proposed reorganization, which is represented in this spreadsheet and in summary below:

  • archivesspace = as is
  • archivesspace-plugins = official plugin, supported (kept up to date)
  • archivesspace-labs = proof of concepts, examples, experiments etc. no support (may not be up to date). may also be the "community" org?
  • archivesspace-deprecated = was official, now do not use, obsolete 

This structure is used by Fedora, Hydra, and Islandora. Reasons for a plugin org:

  • Single location for all "official" (supported) plugins -- avoids duplication in and out of core.
  • Minor benefit: reduce size of distribution (it's getting over 100mb).
  • Make it obvious what is a plugin.
  • Can have more "open" policy for commit access. Policy TBD (start conversation in committer oversight group).

Also TBD: 

 

1. Promoting developers to committer status. Criteria for core / plugins (labs can be very open).

2. Promoting projects / plugins to official. Criteria needed ...

3. Criteria for deprecating a repo.
