Minutes

Training

  • Challenge to find a curriculum developer
  • One goal of the training would be to train the trainer
  • Training should cover the cost, and make some small income
    • We should increase the registration fee from $250
  • Action: Establish a short-term working-group to push a training plan forward
    1. What are the curriculum items?
    2. Put out call to ciriculum developer
  • Look at geography, spread it around the country/world
  • Leadership endorses the $7k investment

Nominations

  • Griffith and U of Melbourne are platinum
    • Action: Jonathan and Val to update documentation on current list of membership

4.0 Release

  • On the heals of HydraConnect, there was a push to clean out code
  • Will need to create messaging around which features will not have been acceptance tested by the time of release
  • Beta pilots are providing excellent feedback/input
  • Action: Put out call for community test-a-thon during next sprint

Actions

  • Send Acceptance Test email to list (grouping tests by feature) and make clear the need to complete 100% of tests by the end of October or the 4.0 release will be delayed until next year David Wilcox
  • Contact specific institutions about acceptance tests for features they are interested in and ask them to complete the tests David Wilcox
  • Draft proposal for training and curriculum development (with clear timelines) in time for the next call David Wilcox
