Notes

2b:  The URL of this Slack team will be changing (to samvera.slack.com) on Monday, August 7th.  Details will be sent to samvera-tech, samvera-community, samvera-partners, and samvera-steering). The change should be transparent to you, and you should not be required to do anything, except update documentation.

2c:  The tagging and labelling infrastructure is set.  We need people to work through the various areas adding a-z terms and versioning info.  Assign yourself an issue and submit a PR.

2d:  Some of our community gems need some rails 5 support and a rails4-stable branch.  We have identified Questioning Authority and Hydra-Role-Management.  We are checking with the community on who is actively developing on rails 4 with either of these gems.  Seeking volunteers to help with rails 5 updates.  Lynette will look at Questioning Authority and Giarlo will comment on github issue for Hydra-Role-Management.  Keep reporting any other rails 4/5 discoveries with our gems.
