| @Christine Di Bella @Jessica Crouch | Thanks to the Testing Team for continued testing. New release coming with lots of exciting updates, including an adaptation of the Harvard excel sheet plug in in the core code and ability to merge top containers. Lots of attendees with the weekly coffee chats and webinars. SAA Annual meeting shifting to online forum this year. Currently thinking about how to adapt the ASpace annual forum to online. Will be presenting the recommendations to the Governance Board for new UAC, TAC, and Board positions. Online forum is next week, please register! | |

Sub-team Reports |
| Please report updates since the last UAC/TAC meeting on 3/23 |
|
Development Prioritization | @Lydia Tang (Unlicensed) | Dev. Pri. met twice since our last UAC meeting. We addressed 41 tickets. We’re seeking feedback on the following tickets: |
|
Documentation | @Jasmine Jones (Unlicensed) | Sub-team is finalizing the revision review process for documentation. Also currently working on a user documentation style guide. Updates (minor revisions and clarifications) to the user manual are being made on a continual basis. |
|
Testing | @Joshua Shaw | Tested 14 Jira issues for the next release. Waiting to hear about future testing assignments |
|
Usability | @Lydia Tang (Unlicensed) | Usability has been fielding some Jira tickets with the “Usability” label prior to Dev. Pri. and recently started a deep dive looking into the usability of the Collection Organization tab. Please view our draft report and comment any questions or feedback you might have! |

Any TAC-reporting subteam updates? |

New Vice Chair for 2020-2021 | @Brittany Newberry (Unlicensed) | Vice chair duties include providing support for Council activities, liaising with and attending meetings of designated sub-teams, and acting as the Chair in meetings of the full Council in the absence of the Chair. The Vice chair is the designated successor the next time the Chair position is open, whether because the Chair’s term on the Council has expired, the Chair has resigned from the Council, or the Chair has decided to remain on the Council but resign from the Chair position. If a Vice Chair resigns or leaves the Council before the Chair position becomes available, the Chair will name a new Vice Chair. Contact Brittany Newberry at bnewberry@auctr.edu if you are interested in volunteering for the position |
