Agenda & Notes

  1. Roll Call

2. Next call

  • Date: August 14th 

  • Facilitator: Rick Johnson

  • Notetaker: Mark Matienzo

3. Hydra-in-a-Box project:  Mark Matienzo provided an update, indicating that there has been a great deal of interest in the project.  The project is in the design phase, working closely with Stanford to identify stakeholder goals, interests and requirements, and to do focused research.  DPLA is interested in hearing from us about our interest, and if we are can help with testing or developer resources.  A survey will soon be seen on the hydra-community e-list and we should also share this with colleagues at other institutions.  There will be a catch-all email list soon for public announcements and questions.  The next in-person meeting is next month.  Tom added that several Hydra-in-a-Box activities were proposed for Hydra Connect.  

4.  Progress on issues from Power Steering (see https://github.com/projecthydra-labs/power-steering/issues) (see also https://waffle.io/projecthydra-labs/power-steering) -  Karen Estlund indicated that the architecture diagram is being worked on by Mark Bussey hopefully in time for Hydra Connect and many of the initiatives described on the waffle board will be worked on at Hydra Connect.  Karen clarified that issues are in rough priority order on the waffle board (starting from 3 down) although issue 37 was added after the power steering meeting.  Comments on priorities are encouraged.

5. Standing Community to-do's

6. Prospective Partner Intel Sharing: There are prospective partners and adopters.

7. Any other old or new business

a. Richard added this note in advance of the call:  Apologies over the appearance (via Hannah) of the original files for the Hydra logo and then their almost immediate takedown (via Richard (me)).  If any Partner wants a logo file for legitimate Hydra use, just post a request to the Partner list.  At the moment the files are "hidden", which I seem to recall was a deliberate decision by Steering Group,  pending Hydra's trademark application which might be jeopardised if they were in the public domain.

Chris clarified that the logos are locked down while we pursue a trademark application.   Tom stated that all the code and documentation are open source, and released under Creative Commons, except for the logos and artwork supporting the logos.  Those are open for approved use by Hydra Partners but not by 3rd parties who should not put the Hydra logo on their products.  DuraSpace will be pursuing the trademark as part of their business and legal support in our new arrangement.  The files are available to partners in a restricted area of the wiki - an email to the Hydra Partners list would be sufficient to get the link.
