  • Review of Parking Lot

  • Wrap-up

Suggested Topics 

  • Samvera Governance Working Group Update
  • 2018 Fund raising.  This may bleed into resourcing and planning.
    • Steering will be working with DuraSpace to coordinate a fund-raising drive beginning almost immediately after the meeting.  We need to present a clear message around the need for funds - not just for possible staff but also for other resourcing and initiatives.  It is anticipated that we will be asking contributors for a three-year funding commitment (where possible) in order that we can guarantee some stability for any staff appointed.  Steering are willing to manage the fundraising but will welcome help from any individuals who would like to become involved.  A funding group will need to be pretty nimble to get things underway quickly.
  • 2017 Annual Report
  • 2018 Virtual Samvera meeting
  • Sunsetting Partners (Steering Group are minded to unilaterally remove one or two Partners from our list due to long-term inactivity - technically this requires a majority vote of all other Partners)
  • Resourcing and Planning
  • Update from Component Maintenance WG; maybe updates from all WGs?
  • Maybe during Resourcing and Planning–can we discuss who is adopting Hyrax and who decided not to? Also, can we talk about which Partners have developer resources they could contribute for the next year?
  • Updating the technical pages of the wiki
    • The pages look to be woefully out of date and I wonder if the Partners might commission a small Working Group to deal with that – ahead of it becoming one of the responsibilities of a technical manager (as and when)?
