Sprint #2 (July 9-20, 2018)

Note

July has turned out to be a difficult time to find Sprint Participants (most individuals we've reached out to are on holiday or busy with local projects).  So, the DSpace 7 Working Group has decided to use this Sprint #2 as concentrated effort towards closing out existing Pull Requests, and also working to finalize/complete in-progress "feature sets" from our Development Planning spreadsheet. While Sprint participants are still welcome to join us, we will also be looking to schedule a Community Sprint #3 in coming months (August or September) to encourage more new developers to get started with DSpace 7!

Sprint Planning / Details

...

  • We have no requirements for your availability during sprint weeks. However, we do ask that you attempt to clear your schedule enough to work on (ideally a few) tickets/tasks during the sprint. At the beginning of the sprint, we'll ask you for your estimated availability (e.g. 20% time or 1 day each week, 40% time or 2 days each week, etc), and work to steer you toward tickets achievable within your available time. You may also specify your exact availability in the signup form below.
  • You will be expected to manage your own work schedule, attend minimal meetings & report your ongoing progress (as described in the below Sprint Schedule).
  • You will be expected to have some existing knowledge of DSpace concepts (on v6 or below) and a willingness to be proactive in learning any new DSpace 7 concepts (see Resources below), such as Angular and/or REST API. While you are more than welcome to use this Sprint as a learning experience, we will not have any formalized training/workshops during the Sprint week itself. That said, video/materials from last year's DSpace Angular workshop is available in the Resources below.
  • You will be expected to be proactive in asking for help or asking questions if you get stuck  (see also Support Options below). Ongoing support will be available on Slack from Sprint Coaches (see below) and other participants. We also have a Zoom video conferencing room (DSpace Meeting Room) available for "face to face" discussions, screen sharing and/or pair programming.
