Meeting Schedule and Attendance

DSpace Developer meetings are a time when Committers and interested Developers can discuss new software features, upcoming releases of DSpace software, and generally plan out the roadmap of DSpace. All meetings are public. We welcome anyone and everyone to attend, speak their opinions or just listen in on the discussions. Please note that we archive all discussions (see Meeting Archives), as a service for those who are unable to attend.

DSpace Developer meetings take place on the following schedule:

  • Every Wednesday at 20:00 UTC/GMT in #duraspace IRC channel
  • All meetings are held for 1 hour (although, admittedly, discussion sometimes extends beyond that)

See the world clock to determine the meeting time where you live.

Meeting topics often include:

  • Recent updates on upcoming DSpace releases, bug fixes or features
  • Reviewing of recent reported issues/bugs/feature requests (see JIRA Cleanup Sessions for more info)
  • Occasionally we vote or make decisions on upcoming DSpace technology plans/roadmap (see Developer Voting Procedures for more info)

If you are unable to attend a meeting, please feel free to add your own notes/comments to the meeting's wiki page.

Developers Meeting on Weds, April 28, 2010

Agenda

  • Announcements
    • GSoC selections announced.
    • Changes to Documentation Workflow (Mark Diggory)
      • Using Confluence as the Documentation System. Requires a process for cleanup and markup effort to target pages for inclusion in "the docs", and to keep content from getting stale, outdated, misleading.
  • DSpace 1.6.1 (Kim Shepherd)
    • DC-Date related bugs – values out of the range and date format inconsistencies.
    • Update and other bugs that need more eyes
    • 1.6.1 Open Issues: 1.6.1 Version in JIRA
  • JIRA Catch-Up – starting with issue DS-517 (and getting as far as we can).

Meeting Notes

GSoC Projects announced, discussion of numerous DC-Date related bugs

Action Items

  • Seemed to be a general consensus around moving towards XMLGregorianCalendar. However, this would be a larger change, likely meaning it would need to be re-scheduled for 1.7.0 rather than 1.6.1
