  • Activity since Summit
    • Steering group has agreed to an initial membership model for 2014: ProposedMembershipandGovernance4-10-2014-1.docx
    • Tim working with a group on roadmap (DSpace Technology Planning Group), includes DCAT members Maureen Walsh and Sarah Shreeves, beginning of their work is here: DSpace 2014 Product Plan/Roadmap  
    • Mtg with Steering Group and roadmap group to discuss governance and roadmap May 8-9

  • Summary of comments/questions about Summit discussion
    • What will DCAT's role be? Will DCAT be a working group? If so, do all DCAT members have to come from member institutions as indicated as a requirement for working groups in the docs? Val: No formal proposal/agreement on changes to DCAT current role, but it seems likely that DCAT would be considered a working group under new governance model. Can't see the DSpace Steering Group excluding anyone from working groups (Committer/contributor group, DCAT, etc) because they don't come from member institutions – in fact they want to find more ways to engage the broader community. Sarah S echoed that sense from the DSpace mtg.  
    • We were never notified that the Vision Group work was complete. Elin to send msg to Stuart to ask him to send a msg to Vision group - notifying them that it's work is done and a bit of info about roadmap group.
    • Val to make an effort to keep DCAT more in the loop of steering group work on governance and membership – help find ways to provide DCAT feedback to steering group. 
    • Vision group and DCAT never got detailed survey results - Sarah to email to DCAT. 
    • Iryna - willing to help w/how to engage developing countries; $250 seems like very reasonable entry point for larger institutions in developing world
