CLAW Project Plan (reviews?)

Islandora Awesome
Results: Melissa will set up an Awesome Islandora site to share community modules and tools. The “Awesome” sites are a genre of curated lists. At Simon Fraser they participate in Awesome PHP (https://github.com/ziadoz/awesome.php). The current list for Islandora community modules that don’t go into the main release will be replaced with the Awesome list. Melissa will manage the list but the move to Awesome means we can all collaborate on making it inclusive and up to date. All of us should keep our eyes open for things to be added. Melissa volunteered to prepopulate the list with the contents of the older list.
