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, August 11, 2010

Agenda

  • JIRA Catch-Up (for first 20 mins or so of meeting) – starting with issue DS-533
  • DSpace 1.7 Features/Updates
    • Our first milestone was to try to finalize major features by mid-August. It is now mid-August.
    • REST API - Do we release as an "beta version" in 1.7? Do we release asynchronously on its own (after 1.7 but before 1.8)? Do we hold until 1.8 or later?
    • AIP Backup/Restore work - It's "ready to go", just needs to be approved by others before committing. Any comments/thoughts?
    • Anyone else have 1.7 feature updates?

Meeting Notes

JIRA catchup, 1.7 updates, AIP Backup/Restore work will be added to Trunk

  • JIRA catchup for the first 30 minutes. Ended with issue DS-552
  • DSpace 1.7 Updates
    • Questions on DSpace Discovery project – is it proposed for 1.7 release still? Concerns about version of Solr?
    • AIP Backup/Restore work – proposed to add to trunk soon for release in 1.7
      • Votes: +5 to add to Trunk (no one was against). An additional +2 from dspace-devel listserv email. AIP work will be added to Trunk
        • Richard Rodgers has expressed a few outstanding questions/concerns about one small API change in prototype (allowing Handles to be assigned to WorkspaceItems). He will work with Tim to figure out a resolution.
  • Discussions for next week: More JIRA catchup, Updates on Discovery work and REST work – hopefully a decision on both as to whether they go into 1.7?
