New Business

• Islandora Chef - License discussion
  • Our LSAP says everything goes under GPLv3; chef recipe is under Apache 2. Is that ok?
    • Rational is that this is more of a "meta-tool", not a module like other contributions.
    • Some code in it is Apache 2, so may not be able to change it.
  • May need to update LSAP to allow for non-Drupal modules to have open-source licences in general. (Melissa to create proposed new LSAP)
• Changes to IF Board membership
  • Priscilla Caplan has left the board. Peter Murray has taken her place.
• Welcome to new LYRASIS rep Chad Nelson.
• From IDIG - Should IF gets its own Confluence from Atlassian?
  • Open to the possibility, but more information is needed before we can discuss the pros and cons. Is OnDemand available for free, or just a free licence?
• Roundtable
  • Kirsta - USTC is hiring a new developer to work with Islandora
  • Melissa - IF will soon be issuing Open Badges that are hosted through Fedora. Credit to Jeremy Nelson for the app that makes this possible.
  • Nick - Doing a lot of work to clean up the chef install script; adding Drush stuff to help with installing libraries
  • Donald - UPEI is working on next version of CAIRN (shared repo in Atlantic provinces). Has several new deployment docs to publish soon
