Attending: Jonathan Green, Kirsta Stapelfeldt, Donald Moses, David Wilcox, Paul Pound

Apologies: Mark Leggott

Meeting began with a discussion of the status/difference in UPEI and DGI's Institutional Repository Code. Some areas may dovetail - A different Shibboleth approach: http://drupal.org/project/simplesamlphp_auth. Put on the schedule for the next meeting.

New "Generic Research Data" Solution Pack

Possible sections for suggesting a new feature:

  • Problem
  • Solution Description
  • Use Cases
  • requirements
  • Dependencies
  • D6/D7
  • Issues
  • Resource Needs
  • Initial Development
  • Timeline
  • Interested Parties

Workflow: David to assign ticket to Kirsta when ready for documenting

Release Management:

  • J.Green is focused on Drupal 7 module release (current sprint is focused on xml forms, pdf, simple image, and audio). Who will manage 6 releases going forward?

Paul has got full time work until December (two concurrent projects that need to be completed) so no availability for release management; same with Alan.

  • If we take on rolling releases of modules, how do we keep sandbox and the VM updated?

  • What is the release schedule for Drupal 6 and 7 modules between now and Dec 2012?

Upcoming modules to be released (?)

  • Drupal 6:

  • Core, XACML, Workflow, autocomplete, digital humanities solution pack, Solr

  • Authorities

  • IR Modules

  • Drupal 7:

  • Core, XML Forms, Basic Image, PDF, Audio

  • Documentation plan for the next release?

  • How does the Product Backlog fit into the roadmap, get reflected in JIRA, and get communicated to the wider community?

  • Sprints at DGI are in their infancy; DGI's focus has not been on community. We should talk about the best way of doing that. For now:

David and Kirsta will have a short meeting (15 minutes) after each sprint is complete. Kirsta will draft a message/approach for communicating this to the community. She will circulate the first one to make sure that the Roadmap team is comfortable with the approach before going forward. First meeting Kirsta & David will take place on September 21st at DGI.

Items for next meeting

  • Bringing IslandScholar with the new IR module
