  1. Call for Agenda Items
    1. None

  2. Reviewed https://github.com/projecthydra/active_fedora/wiki/Getting-Started:-Console-Tour 

     Question:  Should we begin phasing out and directing people over to the Dive Into Hydra Tutorial?

     Discussion:  It is a marginal use case and could cause confusion for those beginning to develop.

             Adam -  It can be used to augment your knowledge, but should start with Dive into Hydra

             Justin -  Idiomatic.  Outdated examples.  Not action based.  Lesson 8 in Dive into Hydra is better than this page.

             Jim - In Favor of a singular starting point for future HydraNauts.

             Drew - But does it still have value for Active Fedora users outside of Hydra?

     Vote to Remove:  +6

     Action:  Drew will remove and archive


  3. AF 7

    1.   How long should we wait for OSU to get legal in?

        OSU met with legal and legal is still concerned.

        Adam proposed holding out as long as possible. - LAMDevConX

        Heavy push to get to AF7.  If starting a new project.

        Is it possible to have a RC without a license? Too complicated.

        Action:  Follow up with OSU.  Wait until LAMDevConX at the latest for AF7 release.


    2.  Chris Colvard added a pull request 3.7.2.  Take a look at it.  Will allow amazing hings from Hydra in near future.
