      2. This was here last time, any followups: Mike attended software development training around object-oriented design with Sandi Metz and it was fantastic. She would like to find some way to work with the Hydra community, especially if we can find our way to the Research Triangle area. Some folks that expressed interest are:

        1. DPLA

        2. Princeton

        3. Northwestern

        4. Duke

        She is booked up until next summer, and she's interested in the Hydra Community. Mike highly recommends taking her training session.

      9. Hydra Metrics Interest Group – They had their first meeting at Hydra Connect, the notes of that meeting are posted.


      (Since a lot of the updates didn't come from members of these groups, request was made in the future as a regular to-do, to have a brief summary update written in the notes before the Hydra Partners meeting.)

      Mike: Groups are forming to improve the documentation for Sufia, and another to improve the user interface for Sufia. Should have more updates by next meeting.
