- +1 or -1
- Paul – rather than be so burdened by what already exists, come up with a blueprint of what we want and come back to look
- Paul – wiki, forum for discussion, calendar
- Mike – web presence for marketing, repo, issue tracker
- Listservs is ripest for improvement – 18
- Aim for 3 outside of governance
- Technical, community, and all - not work group listservs
- see the activity and not losing things by siloing the traffic
- Should we move to a forum (software called Discourse) to have more curated archives?
- Subversion is cumbersome – can't add in bulk
- other groups use email on Google groups – then let Google find them
- Google groups for business – might be worth checking out
- DuraSpace's other projects run on Google Groups
- Can add non-members to Google Groups and can assign permissions to Google Docs and folders
- DuraSpace has an active and large CRM database with 10,000 contacts with multiple tags, several thousand of whom are VIVO contacts
- we need to capitalize on that, wherever it is in transition from Constant Contact to Zoho
- we need write access as long as we don't mess up their system – we can improve their data about VIVO prospects
- more and more touchpoints between projects – when do we think about that
- DSpace has 1700 sites
- We'd have to script Google Groups and the CRM together as step one – have to verify that's possible
- StackOverflow is nice and available – very open assets
- can you follow? can you notify?
- Jim – the purpose of StackOverflow is to bubble the best answer to the top, while a discussion wants to have answers in sequence
Next time
- Mike is not available next week
- Week of the 27th? – tentative for Wednesday April 29th at 3 ET
- interview assignments
- supplement the content
- think about what a recommendation process might look like – think from what we actually need and what it would look like if we do a good job
