• Avalon 8.0 update

  • 8.0 release is now tagged in Github

  • Still working on upgrade instructions

    • Fedora 6 migration worked smoothly in IU test site and with dataset up to several thousand items

    • Having issues with Fedora 6 migration with our much larger production dataset (~300,000)

    • IU may have to delay go-live until late February

  • UMD: are there any concerns about repository bloat? Too many OCFL objects for what we consider 1 digital object?

    • OCFL objects are 1:1 with Fedora IDs. There are multiple OCFL records that made up a media object. There are separate objects not contained under media objects (section lists, access control) 

    • This is all about the specific model used by the application, so this is specific to the application and the application’s model (not Fedora).

    • In the future, we may want to collapse objects (ex: access control) to simplify our data modeling in Fedora

• avalon-l@list.indiana.edu and avalon-discuss-l@list.indiana.edu are going away as IU migrates to iu.edu email domain.

  • We have proposed merging these into a single list avalon-l@list.iu.edu going forward due to low traffic. We will send updates to both lists by end of December.

• January meeting falls on MLK day and will be canceled

• Other agenda items?

  • UMD: Omeka plug-in implemented back in 2017. Is this for Omeka S or Omeka Classic?

    • This is for Omeka Classic. This has not been touched / tested since 2018.

    • Looking at Omeka S as a potential exhibit site for them. Would like something simpler for embeds?

  • UMD: Course reserves

    • list of external groups + number of items

    • any limits to the # of external groups that can be assigned to an item. Not an upper limit that we know of.

    • can we see the # of external groups for each item? No way to see this, except to go into each item

  • NEC: cannot ingest new files. FLO is trying to export server logs to share with Chris.
