If significant bugs or insufficient testing, will delay release
10 min	Submitting feature request for Schematron validation	Terry/Noah	Next steps for getting this in dev. queue Testing conslidated schematron: https://github.com/tcatapano/EAD_Archivespace_Import/blob/master/archivesSpace_consolidated.sch Terry would like testing / feedback of consolidated schematron file and feedback on wording of error messages Test that schematron flags issues it should but doesn't mistakenly flag issues Noah and Brian Harrington will test and submit feedback Submit JIRA feature request for integrating schematron validations service into application (as a background job) Terry will create the JIRA issue and provide info on schematron file and desired behaviors. Implementation details can be sorted out in the JIRA ticket once it get into the development queue
15 min	EAD import / export discussion	All	Review / discuss recent conversations on list and in JIRA: Mark Custer's proposal for modifying "publish" behavior for EAD Importer Current Default Behavior for EAD Importer: Resources set to “published” at collection-level Components (archival objects) set to “published” (ignores @audience attribute) Notes (all levels) set to “unpublished” Proposed Changes to current behavior: Set imported resources to “unpublished” at collection-level by default unless @audience=”external” Set all notes and components (archival objects) to “published” unless @audience=”internal” DISCUSSION: There was general agreement that these changes are desirable Sally asked to clarify behavior Michael V. will confirm with Harvard folks about these changes Noah will create JIRA issue, share with Mark C. He may make some/all of the changes in a pull request. Handling barcodes for EAD import / export: see: AR-1409 - Getting issue details... STATUS EAD exporter inserts barcodes in label attribute: <container @label="Mixed_materials (D0123456$)"> Should EAD importer parse content inside parents () and map to Barcode field in AS? DISCUSSION: No strong opinions on this issue. Will wait to see changes Chris F. makes in response to this ticket
15 min	Support for EAD3?	All	If we want ASpace to support EAD3, how might we proceed? Some general questions: Will it require changes to the data model? Should ASpace support both EAD2002 and EAD3 for some period of time? How should we organize / document work on this front? How should we sequence work (e.g. address exports then imports?) General Brainstorming / Discussion: Terry generally thinks EAD3 support shouldn't be terribly difficult EAD3 was designed to be more compatible with relational databases, so it should more closely align with ASpace data model EAD3 changes include: better date handling; more granular extents, changes to the EAD header (now control). Noah suggested possibilty of creating an EAD3 exporter plugin as a proof-of-concept (not sure how difficult this would be) Terry will use EAD2002 to EAD3 XSLT stylesheet to examine how significant the changes might be Terry will do some preliminary investigation on this and report back to group We will discuss more detailed next steps on future call (hopefully with Brad, Cory, and a developer)
5 min	Archon Migration docs	Phillip Suda (Unlicensed)	Phil has been working on series Archon migration screencasts Screencasts also cover how to set up SQL database and other general migration tasks Phil will send screencasts to group for review and feedback Phil is leaving Tulane and is unsure if he will continue on this group (Congrats and Good Luck, Phil!).
