-Email to Listserv re: tech docs repo
-No responses so far;
-Emails to new members
Alicia Detelich is working on a draft for an email pointing to technical documentation, etc., to new members, and will send it around after she's done.
-Email to new community engagement coordinator re: developer list
Alicia Detelich set email to Jessica Crouch, new community rep, asking to work with her to solicit input from developers; hasn't heard back yet.
-API documentation
Dave Mayo (Unlicensed) put in pull request. Alicia Detelich has tested it out, but not merged.
-Priorities – merge requests What do we want to prioritize?
Dave Mayo (Unlicensed): there's one route in master that is already documented: (https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/blob/master/backend/app/controllers/container.rb ) that was accidentally committed with a bug fix. Thinks we may want to focus on batch functionality.
Question of whether we should be using ArchivesSnake in examples, or just write them in straight python request format. It might be best to write both, but Dave doesn't want to put barrier in front of people who are doing the documenting,
Alicia Detelich thinks we want to encourage ArchivesSnake usability. Bobbi points out that some environments won't support Python 3, and suggests at least a couple examples in straight python would be good.
Dave will experiment with this; he's committing initially that as a pull request that contains an ASnake version, he'll transcribe to the straight python.
-Criteria for examples
-Survey re: new programming – blog posts, videos, webinars, etc.
-Member forum presentation?
