Notes
Call for Participants (Code Stability WG)
Coming out of recent discussion
Aspirational hope for processes
Backwards compatibility smoother
Guidelines for changing this
Short-lived...and benefit the community
Try to come up with some stuff...in the quickest amount of time
Invitation to all members of the community
Ideally, would address all of the Samvera Gems
2.1 Release Update
Two blockers for getting this done
Big testing by Monday
Rayle is going to be contacting collections-related bugs
Rudder will be contacting others for non-collections related bugs
Invitation for any contributions
Rayle posted some top issue with no assignees
Contact Rayle on Slack for more information if you wish to contribute
Valkyrie Sprint Next Week
If you're interested in joining the sprint, please attend the call after this one
Identification of tickets being scoped for the sprint
Also, please join the #valkyrie Slack Channel if you wish to join the sprint later
QA 2.0.1
There was a bug in some of the linked data processing fixed by Rayle
Wants to offer a bug-fix release for QA
If anyone has questions, please contact Rayle
Please note that the configuration for encoding was updated
If you had a parameter which needed URL encoding...no way to configure this processing in the Gem
Now, it defaults not to encode (for backward compatibility)
If you're interested in trying out linked data authorities, Rayle can direct you to documentation
