Agenda

#	Time	Item	Information	Who
1	5mins	Quick reminder of DSpace 7 release schedule/goals	Just a reminder of our goals. We'd want to see an Entities PR to "master" by late Dec / early January to stay on target. Late January / Early February: 7.0 "Preview" release (not feature complete, but should include an early version of Configurable Entities) By late April: 7.0 "Beta" release (first feature complete release) By late May (prior to OR2019): 7.0 "Final" release All dates are goals/estimates. For later dates to make sense, we need to meet the first goal.	Tim
2	30mins	Feedback/updates on the Entities Pull Requests	Thanks for all the merged PRs just before the holidays! Angular UI Entities PRs Add Virtual Metadata Fields for Journals: https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-angular/pull/340 REST API Entities PRs: Retrieving relations per relationship type: https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/pull/2302 REST Contract: https://github.com/DSpace/Rest7Contract/pull/40 Replace term "Entity" (DS-4082): https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/pull/2300 Volunteer Reviewers (additional reviewers are encouraged/welcome!) Paulo Graça Alexander Sulfrian Mark H. Wood	All

Notes

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

Review of timelines. Timelines are getting tight, as ideally we'd have "master" branch changes merged a few weeks before Preview Release.
Feedback on PRs
- Mostly looking good. More feedback needed on each
- REST Contract needs updates per Andrea's comments: https://github.com/DSpace/Rest7Contract/pull/40
- Entity vs Item discussion. We don't have an exact path forward yet. Need feedback from Marketing Group on which term to use for DSpace.
  - Table both DS-4082 / PR#2300 for after the Preview release.
Left to do Before Preview Release
- REST API Contract needs finalized: https://github.com/DSpace/Rest7Contract/pull/40
- Mixing regular text metadata with Entities (coming soon - before next meeting!)
  - PR for REST API (should include REST Contract)
  - PR for Angular UI
- Lieven: Sample data for prototype (Make available for download as well as a SQL - as it'll have actual Journals, etc)
- Lieven: Google Doc consolidation (some in marketing and some in wiki or Google Doc)
  - Update existing Documentation to describe how to manage relations. This documentation need not be highly detailed, but should more talk about the high level process of creating/updating/deleting relations & how newly configured relations can also be created/updated/deleted.
- (If possible) Creating a Relation (between two objects) from the Angular UI. However, this requires Submission UI, so it's not likely to be in the Preview Release
Steering next meets on Weds, Jan 16.
- Tim will pass along that we are running behind on Entities and are not likely to meet current Preview Release deadlines.
- Will get feedback from Steering on how to adjust those Release deadlines
- Also need feedback on whether Marketing Group has started up and how to work with them on Marketing Entities for Preview Release.
Next Meeting: Next Meeting: Tues, January 22 at 16:00 UTC
- Concentration on "wrapping up" tasks left to do before Preview Release
