Agenda

Samvera Connect reminders

Samvera Connect brief progress update

Partner meeting at Connect (@Carolyn Caizzi , 5 minutes)

Minutes: 

• Samvera Connect reminders and brief progress update
  
  

  • Andrew: Reminders have gone out on Slack

    • Please register if you haven't (current registration: about 113, close to that in workshop signups)

    • Program up for a while, schedule coming soon (confirming that presenters will be registered and present)
      
      

• Partner meeting at Connect

  • Carolyn: Ben and I are co-chairing

    • Please add your name to the partner meeting agenda, we would like to have an accurate head-count

    • The agenda is fleshed out for the whole day, starting at 8:30am (coffee and snacks provided)

    • There will be a remote connection option (tested recently, and it sounded OK)

• Carolyn: Question: Heard the Working Group for Hyrax was being slowed down by free version of Travis, and potentially looking about using a different tool or paid version, should that request go to Steering?
  
  

  • John: I'm new to steering, but I think so, who will I get details from?

  • Carolyn: Will write up a request with more info and send to Steering

  • Dan: We also had problems with Travis, and a paid version didn't help — refactoring the test suite was a more effective approach

  • Will: Daniel Pierce is working on that this sprint and looking at CircleCI 2.0, which may resolve the issue

• Andrew: Gotten question from my institution about what partner financial contributions would go towards, would like a resource to point people to
  
  

  • John: The Governance WG report and recommendations include that info, can send links to more detailed info — but maybe other people could use that info too?

  • Carolyn: Contribution Model WG will present at the partners meeting, and Richard will do an update about fundraising (related to eventually hiring staff), but specifics always welcome

  • Andrew: Will wait for partners meeting discussion, and bring info back to my institution
    
    

November (assuming October is happening at Samvera Connect and we have facilitators for that:
