Zoom link

 Participants

• @Kiah Stroud Softserv

• Sarah Proctor Softserv

• @Rebekah Kati , UNC-Chapel Hill

• Rachel Jacobson

 Goals

• Discuss any newly discovered documentation needs

• Discuss how we want to organize the issue board

• Review the issue board

 Discussion notes

• Any documentation needs from participants? No

• Recap of kick off meeting and goals of group

• Github project board: Documentation Tasks • samvera

  • Folks have been adding to this outside of the meeting

  • Group the tickets

    • By priority?

    • By system/group that needs to be consulted?

      • There is a way to link issues to a particular repo in the Samvera org and make use of labels.

      • If an issue applies to two or more systems, can it be added to both? We’ll ask one of the groups to update and revisit if this approach isn’t working.

    • Label needs: system (hyrax, hyku, avalon), group (ask heather), difficulty or effort level. We can make use of repo labels once the issue gets added to a repo and add categories to issues on the documentation project board

• Embargo documentation

  • The documentation seems up to date, but some of the tickets themselves seem to have been closed without the functionality being changed

  • Should the group address and resurface old tickets? Commenting is always welcome, but closing not the responsibility of this group.

• Folks in this group can feel free to volunteer to update documentation themselves, but no one should feel obligated to do so.

• Structure of future meetings: begin with documentation needs and discussion. After that’s complete, folks who want to can categorize issues.
