Working Group Call Location:
First Zoom Call: https://notredame.zoom.us/j/7826130987
Repeating: Monthly (every 4-5 weeks), Friday, 11:30 AM ET
Scope & Objectives
The Samvera EZID to DataCite DOI Working Group will organize and coordinate efforts around Samvera Partners moving from EZID to DataCite for DOI creation. The primary activities will be around building technology support into core Samvera gems, frameworks, and applications to support utilizing DataCite for DOI creation. Currently, many Samvera partners utilize the EZID service to create DOIs. Support for non-U of California system schools will be sunseted in 2018, and at that time all non-UC Samvera partners will need to have shifted to DataCite instead. Consequently, UC-system schools will continue to use EZID and therefore support for both EZID and DataCite should be maintained. There will also be activities and information sharing around logistics for Samvera partners to shift memberships from EZID to DataCite. It is also anticipated that some users may already be using DataCite (e.g., European partners) who may also want to migrate to the produced solution(s).
...
There are a few different parallel timelines to watch and/or manage regarding this shift:
- DataCite roadmap: DataCite will be enhancing their system with several features to be in feature parity with EZID
- Sunset Timeline for EZID membership: Sept 2017 to Dec 2018
- DataCite Temporary Support for EZID API
- Hyrax Roadmap
- Migration plans of partners to Hyrax (e.g., from Sufia, Curate, CurationConcerns)
...
The call for participation will be sent to samvera-community@googlegroups.com, and samvera-tech@googlegroups.com.
Next Call Scheduled on Oct. 27, 2017 at 11:30 PM ET at https://notredame.zoom.us/j/7826130987
Regular meetings will be held every 4-5 weeks on Friday at 11:30 PM ET
Meetings, meeting minutes, deliverables, and milestones will be announced on samvera-community@googlegroups.com, and samvera-tech@googlegroups.com.
We will set up a dedicated (not private, but topic-specific) Slack channel in the Samvera team for asynchronous communication (#eziddatacite). This should help us keep discussions focused and on topic.
Meeting notes recording action items and provisional decisions will be in the Samvera wiki.
...
