Meeting Process
Notes
Updates
David is digging into Workflows as part of working towards production with Comet
Could just be test setup issues
Daniel is open to any suggestions of refactoring
Daniel is working on fixing sirenia failing tests
Randall Floyd is working on Rails/Ruby upgrade PR
Pushing to Hyrax 5.1
Fedora 6.5.1 RC with fixes for encoded slashes
valkyrie still has one failing test with that fedora image
part of Hyrax 5.1 work
Avalon
working on getting 8.0 release by end of year
working through test migration to fedora 6 with snapshot of IU production data
Able to use latest version of fedora import-export tool because Avalon doesn’t use versions or fedora ACLs
Had flakiness which killed the export
Latest version of import-export allows for resuming export
Migrating exported data to Fedora 5 then 6 using fcrepo-upgrade-utils worked fine
Starting up fresh Fedora 6 on migrated data had issues
On startup Fedora 6 indexed into DB for cache which took hours
While reindexing Fedora unavailable (responds with 503)
Membership indexing failed (worked on second startup?)
Discussing in fedora slack with others who had same issue
Browse-everything
Needs a lot of love - particularly JS
What to do about all of the forks
Chris will make a call in early 2025 to figure out plan
Daniel had looked at it during attempt to upgrade Hyrax to Bootstrap 5
Ran into issues
Could it be dropped from Hyrax?
Could B-E be deprecated in favor of a 3rd party tool like Uppy?
