Old Business

• Islandora 7.x-1.3 release updates (Nick & Melissa)

  • Today is release day! - Release email has been sent. Remaining tasks are documentation updating.

• Islandora Sandbox (Donald & Paul)

  • Sandbox is almost ready, except for one residual issue with searching inside book viewer. Nick linked to repo with extra config files for Solr https://github.com/yorkulibraries/basic-solr-config/commits/modular

• Future Releases (Lessons Learned)

  • More component managers - Nick had a large volume of components to manage in addition to the release. Need to pursue acquisition of managers more actively.
  • Communication was not very effective on the list, because many people are not reading everything on the list. May need a new communication practice for release components. For the next release TODO: Create release mailing list.
  • Documentation - Document Interest Group should take a role and approach to release documentation (updating and publication around a release)

• Islandora Interest Groups:

  • Preservation Interest Group (Donald)
  • Documentation Interest Group (Kirsta and Gabriela)
  • Fedora 4 Interest Group (David)

• Islandora/Fedora 4 Alpha Project

  • should be synced with announcement of Fedora 4 Interest group - week of May 5?

• Crowdfunding possibilities - brainstorming document

  • FFMPEG dependency ... should we investigate http://libav.org/about.html as an alternative/replacement ?

    • https://github.com/ruebot/islandora_videojs (Nick - I'll send a foundation offer after the release)
    • Audio option - SoundCloud player? https://github.com/soundcloud/soundcloud-custom-player
