Developers Meeting on Weds, June 6, 2012

Agenda

Regular Items

• JIRA Catch-Up – starting with issue DS-1038
  • Search for all Unresolved Issues (since DS-1038)
• REMINDER: Sign up & Suggest Topics for DSpace Developers Meeting at OR12

Discussion Topics

1. How can we "catch up" with JIRA? It seems like we just keep falling further behind in our reviews. (Currently at 90+ unreviewed tickets)
   • Do we need to "split up" the tickets & do quick reviews on our own? Or perhaps just split up tickets & do a very quick ranking & schedule ones with patches for 3.0?
   • Other ideas?
2. Updates to our Guidelines for Committing based on GitHub/Git?
   • Thoughts on how we rework these polices to our new GitHub development environment (with Pull Request policies, etc.)?
3. 3.0 Release Updates / Possible feature updates or ideas
   • REMINDER: Add your planned 3.0 contributions to the 3.0 Wiki Page
4. Other topics?

Additional Ongoing Topics

1. Brainstorming Features/Changes for 3.0. Can we work towards development teams around any of these projects?
   • Larger DSpace projects which seem to have a lot of recent support:
     • Moving towards a Common "Business Logic" / Business Services API. (I.e. avoiding duplication of business logic in all UIs)
     • Metadata For All (i.e. metadata on all objects), SubTopic: Getting us up-to-date how we use Dublin Core / DCMI. (Support from DCAT)
     • AuthN & AuthZ issues, including: DS-994, DS-1006, DS-1007, DS-1088, and developer meeting on May 2, 2012
   • Other DSpace projects receiving mention recently
     • Migrate Search and Browse to DSpace Discovery
     • "Change which UIs come out-of-the-box" (and which are optionally installed later)
     • Move configurations to DB or similar (so they can be managed/edited from Admin UI)
     • Context Guided Ingest (or Item Type based submissions)
     • Other Development Proposals
