Zoom information: DSpace Meeting Room
Agenda:
- Announcements
- DSpace fundraising update (Kristi Park)
- New DSpace Program Coordinator, Natalie Baur
- A second opportunity for DCAT to meet Natalie
- Natalie's position is funded thanks to the generous fundraising pledges via SCOSS.
- Input needed: 6.x "log-based statistics" and the 7.x releases (Tim Donohue)
- The developers are seeking input on a task in Tier 3: Medium Priority. It is currently on hold so that the Dev Team can seek feedback:
- Task: Administrative (potentially log-based) statistical reports, similar to 6.x (UI ticket #786, REST ticket #2852) (Needs feedback from DCAT & others) (Statistics)
- The proposal from the Dev Team is that we may want to drop 6.x "log-based statistics" and replace it with enhancements to "Usage Statistics" and "Quality Control Reports".
It is unclear what is most important in these older log-based reports. In other words, the Dev Team doesn't want to lose important reporting features... but, at the same time, they feel that trying to rebuild the "log-based" statistics into DSpace 7 is a massive project. If we can instead enhance our usage statistics with more detailed reports, that may actually be a smaller project (or at least similar sized and easier to maintain for the future).
- Background (see https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/issues/2852#issuecomment-1286064086 and https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-angular/issues/786):
