"Finalizing" DSpace Entities Definition & Initial Use Cases

In the last meeting we discussed concentrating DSpace 7 Entities work around two main use cases: Journal Hierarchies, and Author Profiles.

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1CJ8AkBtrY49rqn-WhYlP3kkZRVhCXGVgAIZHutJ-fas/edit#heading=h.d1mje1bwen1e

Few comments were added to the document since our last meeting. Does anyone have any final enhancements/tweaks to these definitions & use cases before we move forward with them in our implementation efforts?

Entities Implementation schedule / next steps

DSpace 7 timeline being finalized by Steering Group (in coming week). Currently looking at a "preview" or "alpha" release before end of 2018.

Entities implementation (initial prototype) will take place on the following "configurable_entities" branches:

Angular UI: https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-angular/tree/configurable_entities
REST API / backend: https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/tree/configurable_entities

(NOTE: Code is not yet posted to those branches. Atmire is working on submitting two Pull Requests to those branches – coming soon in the next week.)

We need developers ready to review / test / enhance initial implementation. Volunteers signed up at last meeting:

Notes

All meetings will be recorded. Recordings and brief/summary notes will appear here after the meeting

Next steps (as decided in our meeting)
- Atmire will post PRs for Angular & REST API to the respected "configurable_entities" branches:
  - Angular UI: https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-angular/tree/configurable_entities
  - REST API / backend: https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/tree/configurable_entities
- Once PRs are posted, volunteers will review them quickly for inclusion into the "configurable_entities" branch. Features need not be perfect, but PRs should be quickly code reviewed.
- Tim Donohue will ensure the "configurable_entities" branches stay synced with "master". Will ask for help when needed, but this likely only needs to be done once per week.
- Lieven Droogmanswill share Atmire's discussion notes on which features or portions of use cases do not yet exist (or need more discussion) in the early implementation.
  - TODO: Everyone review these notes (once shared), as we'll discuss whether any features/use cases are high priority for DSpace 7, or could be delayed for a future release.
Next Meeting will be Tues, Nov 6 at 16UTC (notice: cause of daylight savings ending soon, we are changing the UTC time of the meeting so that it stays at the same time after daylight savings ends)
- Will discuss the early implementation feedback (from PR reviewers)
- Will discuss features that are not yet implemented and work to prioritize them for DSpace 7.
