Developers Meeting on Weds, January 19, 2011
Agenda
- First 15-20 minutes: JIRA Catch-Up – starting with issue DS-659
- Moving towards finalizing a Timeline for 1.8.0
- Over past few weeks (and amongst Committers privately), a few 1.8 Timeframe options have been discussed:
- Release 1.8.0 in either Sept or Oct 2011 - See Sample Timeframes in 1.8.0 Release Notes
- Release 1.8.0 "with enough time to generate reports/presentations" for Open Repositories. The exact details of this proposal are still a bit unclear to me, and need clarification. But I suspect this would mean a 1.8.0 release in Dec 2011 or early 2012 (i.e. before deadlines for OR12 submissions start to occur).
- Over past few weeks (and amongst Committers privately), a few 1.8 Timeframe options have been discussed:
- Beginning to Brainstorm potential features for 1.8.0 release:
- More Curation Tools/Plugins? (Obviously, some could potentially even be release asynchronously, and also formally "bundled" with 1.8.0)
- REST API formal release? It missed 1.7.0, but there seemed to be interest there. Volunteer(s) to stabilize/improve for 1.8.0?
- DSpace "Easy" Installer? (see DS-802 for very early thoughts – code coming soon)
- Other ideas, things people are already working on / towards?
- Topics for upcoming "Special Topics" Meetings?
- git / DCVS
- Forming a "Documentation Management Team"? Or reworking our procedures for managing/reviewing/approving Docs on the Wiki.
