Discussion Items

  • Action items from last meeting

    • @Laney McGlohon (Unlicensed)

      • PR #1489 still outstanding - on Laney to test some more

      • PR #1587- closed because decided this was best handled by modifying the PDF stylesheet

    • @Lora Woodford added issue #1625 to investigate removing parent_name column from DB

    • @William Mayo (Unlicensed) update on the API Ad Hoc working group - API Ad Hoc Working Group

  • Discussion topics

    • Developer Onboarding wiki pages for review and enhancement - Developer On-boarding

    • How to handle PRs that are a good start but are not complete

      • Create feature branch in the core code repo with PR from forks

      • Add WIP label to the beginning of the title of the PR when a reviewer thinks it needs more before merging to show that it is being worked on

      • if it is enough to put into core code but can be enhanced later, go ahead and merge the PR and open a GitHub Issue with wht needs to happen next along with adding links in both directions to any corresponding Jira tickets

      • Good litmus test for determining whether to put in a Jira ticket or a GitHub issue is whether it needs to go through the development prioritization group. If so, put in a Jira ticket, if not, put in a GitHub issue.

    • Github Issue - Startup failure on fresh instance due to non-UTF-8 table, #1697. Reference https://mathiasbynens.be/notes/mysql-utf8mb4#column-index-length. https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/pull/1700
