Interest Group Updates

  • Documentation IG (Melissa): Has not met.
  • Dev Ops (Mark Jordan): Has not met.
  • Metadata IG (Jordan (for Jennifer)): Notes. Good discussion and demos, particularly of Metadata Analyzer.
  • IR interest group (Mark):
    • Met yesterday. Discussion about Scholar embargo issue. Background discussion here.
    • Also discussed ORCID integration. FLVC is getting involved in Islandora Scholar and has interest in ORCID integration. They would like to discuss with Donald.
  • Security Interest Group (Rosie):
    • Met for first time yesterday. Notes. Decided on forming an emergency response team of people with coding skills and merge permissions, who can respond quickly to issues which may arise (based on Mozilla approach), and work with secrecy until a patch is ready. Will request volunteers during next Committers Call so we have more Committers involved. Working through this document. Still working on Terms of Reference for the IG overall.
