10 min | Review and confirm work plan | Remaining issues from 2021-06-08 minutes have been added to this term's workplan. This makes the workplan more detailed than usual, but brings this info together into one place. Regarding a more pro-active role in the development cycle, please list ideas for that. I know there are some ongoing, but I don’t have them written down. | |

Elizabeth review of the MARC importer versus DACS revealed that AS does not support every DACS element in the DACS crosswalk, and we will be following up
We discussed and agreed that we are using DACS to judge support of the MARC importer because:
ArchivesSpace is not a bibliographic software
We are aligning with the dominant standard in our field
We will make recommendations that support for MARC fields be depreciated, but not until a certain year so that the community has plenty notice that this is going away
For EAD2002, we are still feeling our way in how much to document, but agreed in general that we should first focus on what is already present in the code. We will begin by getting organized and oriented.
We expect to start with the NOT IMPORTED and MIXED CONTENT sections.
We are splitting attention and members between old business and new business but will discuss everything as a group
