Notes

Agenda Items
- Community Manager items (Heather Greer Klein):
  - Looking for volunteers to facilitate a November 2021 Developers Congress
    - It's time to schedule a Developers Congress for November
      - There is now a template for initiating this, but it would be best to have a facilitator to finding a date
      - James volunteered for this
  - Looking for 30 min Q&A session leaders
    - Hyrax Dev. Group meeting proposed this
    - This will be scheduled for every two weeks
    - Looking for a call for volunteers to facilitate with this
    - This is intended to be piloted following Samvera Connect 2021
      - The original intention was to have this be a group directed towards those less experienced with Hyrax
  - Available for any questions regarding 2022 maintenance pledge drive
    - When are we expecting feedback for the pledges?
    - September 15th is the tentative date, and this is also going to follow some negotiation regarding time commitments

Samvera Help Follow-Up
- https://samvera.slack.com/archives/C0F4P3FFF/p1630450838000800
  - This was resolved by Maria Whitaker
- Updating jQuery for Samvera Projects
  - Rodrigo: Need to update this due to a security issue
  - Needed to disable certain components
    - browse-everything has a conflict with jQuery 3.x releases
    - https://github.com/ColmexBDCV/colmex_hyrax/blob/master/app/assets/javascripts/hyrax/browse_everything.js
    - James created https://github.com/samvera/browse-everything/issues/371
      - James was aware that https://github.com/ludo/jquery-treetable was included in browse-everything
      - This needs to be deprecated, and James can see about addressing this
    - Hyrax: Rodrigo has advanced work to support jQuery 3.x releases
      - Might it be possible to update this into a pull request?
      - The largest issues for upgrading jQuery support conflicts with Blacklight upstream
      - Specifically, the https://github.com/projectblacklight/blacklight_range_limit plugin Gem for Blacklight introduced a number of conflicts
    - browse-everything is going to block this, but COLMEX does not require browse-everything
Pull Request Review
- WIP Pull Request supporting analytics for Hyrax
  - This was opened yesterday
  - Request for review from anyone who is available
