   4. Key highlights for DSpace developers
      1. DSpace Entities
         1. DSpace Steering Group publicized a new statement on their proposal for moving forward with DSpace Entities effort: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1T1gkosr5u0JqISV4DL0HSlAEH6QhPpCLnKggx-pq6hc/edit
         2. Proposal is to move forward with option #3, but turn it into an open, community developed project (similar to DSpace 7 WG efforts currently)
         3. Summit attendees are in favor of adding new Entities to DSpace 7, but resources are the main question.
         4. Summit attendees proposed developing a small MVP (minimum viable product) to make this more tangible and perhaps help garner more support (via funding or resources).
         5. Key question now is finding resources and/or scoping tightly for DSpace 7.
      2. Sprint details were enhanced/improved based on feedback from Summit attendees

3. (Ongoing Topic) DSpace 7 Status Updates for this week (no major updates)

4. (Ongoing Topic) DSpace 6.x Status Updates for this week

   1. DSpace 6.3 Release Planning is ongoing. Thanks to those who have been helping out with tests and reviews over the last week.

   2. As we approach the proposed deadline of May 1, more open PRs will be shifted to 6.4 as we don't have enough resource to get through them all. By April 25th, if we can get to a 'soft freeze' on 6.x merges, we can start testing a 6.3 release more thoroughly. More info at: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/dspace-devel/RbHhnhaFOto
