| Sub-team Reports |
|
|
| Development Prioritization | Jason Loeffler | - The sub-team has concluded backlog grooming. All epics and user stories are up-to-date.
- List of user stories presented to Hudson Molonglo in early August. These 18 stories form the backlog for future development. Negotiations with Hudson Molonglo are ongoing. Hudson Molonglo have indicated that they will only do project work and not hourly work.
- Development prioritization survey results are in. Brad Westbrook to unpack and present results. 80+ institutions responded for a 33% participation rate. Participation was broadly spread across all of the member categories.
- Members of sub-team are amidst revising the draft OAI-PMH responder specification for estimate by Hudson Molonglo and possible cost-sharing by ArchivesSpace member institutions.

| Documentation | Linda Hocking | - Drafted Location management documentation
- Drafted help table for Archon/AT users
|
| Reports | Nancy Enneking | The group discussed the need to send the ArchivesSpace Reports Specification to developers, including Hudson Molonglo and Atlas Systems. To help the developers, we will redesign a handful of basic and complex reports to demonstrate the range of complexity. We established subgroups and a timeline for completing the following by the end of October: - review the executive summary, goals, and requirements of the draft ArchivesSpace Reports Specifications documents to ensure clarity (Brad and Alston);
- review and develop new report approximately 6 final drafts of definitions for a variety of reports (including shelf list, accession receipt, and subject list reports) varying in complexity (Nancy and Carolyn);
- and assemble a corpus of targeted canned reports including titles and single sentence descriptive summaries (Nikki, Brenda, Jasmine).
