Agenda (moderator)
1. Call for other agenda items (moderator)
2. LaRita Robinson and Jeremy Friesen An initial review of analysis and proposal regarding roles, permissions, and groups in Hyrax (document to review and comment on)
  1. Seeking feedback over the next 2 weeks.
  2. The doc describes a non-trivial refactor with the aims of:
    1. identify a more unified direction for how to handle roles, permissions, and groups.
    2. bring code together, rather than having the logic spread throughout the code base
  3. easily answer:
    1. "What can a given user do on a given entity?”
    2. "Who all can perform a given action on a given entity"
  4. Please add feedback and discussions within the Google Doc itself.
  5. Feedback and next steps will be discussed in 2 weeks.
  6. Lynette Rayle thoughts:
    1. suggests reading the glossary to get a feeling for the terms
    2. concerned about potential proliferation of Workflows
  7. Jeremy Friesen thoughts:
    1. Workflow code will have to be refactored to be less tightly coupled with Admin Sets
    2. CanCan may still be used as a convenient interface, and for backward compatibility, but may end up delegating most authorization logic to whatever new system we come up with.
3. Need additional guidance on https://github.com/samvera/hyrax/issues/1376, in particular where should we be storing the banner image for a collection? If there is not agreement, then we'll need to propose some semblance of an adaptive solution.
