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.

Meeting Notes
1.6.2 was released, some planning for OR10 meetup, discussion of Services Framework & Code License Headers
- 1.6.2 was released!
- GSoC updates
- One month till midterm. Working to get a weekly or bi-weekly student meeting setup.
- Discussion of DSpace Services Framework
- All agree that more concrete, hands-on work will be needed to get real feedback on framework
- Several mention they will make effort to use Services Framework where it makes sense in upcoming projects
- Need more clarification on how to use services – best practices, etc.
- Discussion of DuraSpace proposal for smaller license headers in code
- General approval. Some concerns that it may need to be run by a lawyer to be 100% sure (although the Fedora license header, which is almost identical, has been run by lawyers at UVA).
- Richard Rodgers may run by lawyers at MIT, just in case
