Sprint Goals

Alphabetic jump to (specific letter) in results listing (NOTE: Below browse tasks have a dependency on this feature. Should we do this prior to the sprint?)
1. E.g. Jump to a Title / Author starting with a specific letter or string, like http://demo.dspace.org/xmlui/browse?type=title
Build out Administrative Search/Browse tools (each of these tools is limited to Site Administrators)
1. Find Item by Internal Item ID/Item Handle (e.g. XMLUI: http://demo.dspace.org/xmlui/admin/item , JSPUI: http://demo.dspace.org/jspui/tools/edit-item)
2. Browse Withdrawn Items (by Title) (e.g. XMLUI: http://demo.dspace.org/xmlui/admin/withdrawn , JSPUI: http://demo.dspace.org/jspui/dspace-admin/withdrawn)
3. Browse Private Items (by Title) (e.g. XMLUI: http://demo.dspace.org/xmlui/admin/private , JSPUI: http://demo.dspace.org/jspui/dspace-admin/privateitems)

Sprint Schedule

Weekly Kickoff Meeting (each Monday)
- Sprint Participants (or a representative from your organization) should attend the Sprint Week Kickoff Meeting in DSpace Meeting Room.
  - Anyone unable to attend must touch base with the Sprint Coordinator (Tim Donohue) via another means (Slack, DSpace Meeting Room, email, etc) for any necessary information.
- The goal of the Kickoff meeting is to:
  - Touch base & finalize plans / goals for the Sprint week (i.e. ensure everyone is on the same page)
  - Ensure all participants have assigned tasks, and any necessary support/resources to begin their work
  - As necessary, go through expectations / protocols of the Sprint (e.g. Contributing code via PRs, Where to ask for help/support, Meeting schedule for week, etc)
  - Address or discuss any questions that sprint participants may have

Daily Standups via Slack: On each day of the sprint (Tues-Fri), prior to 15:00 UTC, each participant should report their status update in the Slack #dev channel. This will act as our daily "standup" meeting.
