- incentivize updates/presentations from wider community about how they are using Islandora;
- casting net to ask for 5-10 min presentations and look for result;
- keeping panel discussion format with IG and user/tech call members as a contingency plan and as an option for future Islandora Open events
- Ian: Email from Leadership Group? --> Islandora group list;
- Bethany might step in to report on I8;
- Drew: looking for citation module for I8; Bethany, Don, will communicate outside mtg; Kent State appears to have citations;
- Amy: ICG prepared report on Islandora testing, will be shared with ICC soon
- Anyone on ICC able to report back on ISLE? Possibly asking for updates on Slack?
- Don will explore temporary solution to get updates to ICC;
- Email to Islandora Community from 2021-07-30: [https://groups.google.com/u/2/g/islandora/c/diETUckBFp0]
- community might feel need for tech lead sooner than need for Exec Dir
- should ICC continue with plans to set up support structures to fill gaps left by Danny?
- LG seems to suggest top-down organization strategy that is new to Islandora culture
- Danny had huge horizontal technical awareness;
- Melissa leaving foundation leaves gap for community organization role;
- firm technical lead wanted;
- need role who can speak tech really well, bridging broader vision and needs of community contributors;
- coordination of various individual organizations' needs and development activities, will it be possible for Exec Dir to effectively bridge that?;
- strategic directions under purview of Leadership Group and ICC, effective to 'outsource' this to Exec Dir?;
- job description for Exec Dir available?;
- call for Exec Dir position might not result in candidates willing to work hands-on on tech questions and community organization, project management;
- reasons for decision? possibly not enough funds to hire both community organization and tech lead?
- could prioritize coordination aspects and possibly 'outsource' tech side?
- similar transitions, changed roles at other open source projects?;
- prioritize community organization role based on prior experience before Danny came on board;
- use prior model of rotating release manager - but complexity of Islandora grows, role of tech lead became more complex;
- time contributions as possible/realistic model for rotating tech lead? e.g. organizations in the community contributing 0.5-1 FTE for e.g. half a year at a time?; example: UPEI will allow Rosie to contribute even more time to Islandora community work, allowing her to facilitate coordination between stakeholders and work towards improved user experience for the product
- IF paying x hours/week for rotating tech lead?;
- timing crucial, job search for Exec Dir could take long, need to support institutions in migration from 7 to 8;
- ICC members want to respond to Leadership
- form of response: email with ICC position and suggestions, as foundation for group discussion with leadership;
- ICC members to work collaboratively on Google Doc;
- Jenna sends recap communication about August SoI, asking for contributions from wider community in the form of 5-10 min presentations/demos
- Don asks if Danny can re-join ICC as born digital rep, to provide updates on ISLE
- Mirko sets up google doc with draft for ICC response to exec dir suggestion, share link with ICC members and queue them to look (email and ICC slack channel)
- Jenna reaches out to Leadership Group, communicating that ICC is working on response to recommendation/call for feedback, and that we would appreciate LG not make a decision before we submitted our response and had time to discuss with them;
