Agenda

• #repo-managers Updates 
  • Hyrax vs. Nurax, collections-extensions Status 
    • Nurax is just supposed to be the newest release of Hyrax. Vanilla instance of Hyrax for testing.
    • Difference with Nurax vs. a local Hyrax - all configurations turned on. 
    • Nurax does not always have the most recent code. Usually deployed closer to formal release.
    • Once it gets 2.1, it may be on that for a while. Already in beta release.
  • QA Testing
    • Working on big bugs (like Rails errors)
    • Will move into release candidate, might be best time for DURT.
    • Last time, there were 5 release candidates, 10 weeks. Shorter window this time around. 
    • Could also consider trying to do our work right after 2.1 (as 2.1.1, perhaps)
    • Release process: http://samvera.github.io/release_process.html
    • More bugs in sharing/permissions than navigation / discovery
• DURT Planning

  • Running issues: UI/UX Hyrax running issue list

    • UXIG will process issues from this list into GitHub
  • Actionable feedback plan / advice
    • Adam might be able to help work on recommendations. Typically hard to get development effort.
    • There are also accessibility issues that need to be fixed.
  • Timing / schedule
    • Nasty bugs have another two weeks
    • Let's just wait for wait for full release to do testing
  • Scope / focus
    • Work with staff again
  • How many participants?
  • Documentation to review
• Governance questions
  • Will this affect us?

Action Items / Next Steps

• Explore collections functionality (navigating between three views of object can be tricky/confusing.) *might be a good candidate for user testing
  
  • Example collection: https://nurax.curationexperts.com/collections/gb19f583j?locale=en
  • Lots of layout elements came from initial wireframes (Hyku). May want to reconsider.
  • Another issue: https://github.com/samvera/hyrax/issues/2680
  • Breadcrumbs are another issue
• Adam: consider other UX methods for glaring problems, before doing user testing
• Julie will tag UI/UX advisors on some smaller issues (not requiring user testing)
