  • Program updates (Brad + Chris)

    • 11/3 Board meeting:

      staffing - Christine Di Bella is the program asst, (halftime) started Nov.3

      ArchivesSpace board - 2nd meeting, 2-hour conference call

      - approved use of Contributor License agreements - now are on ArchivesSpace Github and website!! (yay!) will apply retrospectively to Yale contributions 

      - Approved use of a Conflict of Interest statement for employees, don’t believe it will be for any of the councils
       

    • Features Prioritization update

      • Development roadmap:

        - distilling, compiling, and embellishing user stories into a single representation that makes it easier to navigate across the stories

        - distributing to each member rep for organization, each org can weigh in

        - target date for distribution is Jan 5

        Terry: does this include suggested features/contributions? - Yale reports? How do these intersect with what AS is doing?

        Brad: create a development hub where these reports can be listed, stories will indicate provenance (of sorts) of each report - PT, etc.

    • Going forward with having an AS house for Code4Lib

    • PT vs JIRA: Migrating user stories from PT to JIRA

      - Will allow a more organized view of user stories

      - Allows community to vote on stories 

      - Confluence is used for wiki - the two are integrated

      - Esme- Fedora switched for those reasons, PT good for sprints, but not for community features, better for broader community perspective Terry - Jira - more widely used, people are more familiar with it

      Jira now supports Agile methods

    • Minor release on Fri. Dec 19. Starting testing this coming Monday. About 35 stories, probably more bugs than new features.

  • New subgroup formations

    • Migration subgroup

      • Migration group - also now cross council, have contributions to make to migration subgroup.

        Cory - interested in name authority migration 

        Also interested in ways of streaming the import process, providing better messages
