Plans for Virtual Connect around March/April 2019

Ryan Steans, Chrissy Rissmeyer

(Chrissy cannot call in until 9 am Pacific, adding written update beforehand just in case.)

  • This year's Virtual Connect will be held via Zoom webinar on Tuesday, April 23 and Wednesday, April 24 (starting at 8am PDT / 11:00am Eastern / 4pm BST) The event will be held over 2 days and organized into tracks. Each day's event will be approximately 90 minutes (instead of a 1-day, 3-3 1/2 hour event).

    • This change is in response to community feedback received following the past 2 years events. Additionally, we hope the shorter duration will make it easier for those in the UK to attend most of the event during regular business hours.

  • A combined save-the-date and call for proposals will be sent to the community early next week.

 

Plans for  Spring Partner meeting 

 Jon Dunn, Rosy Metz, Carolyn Caizzi

(Chris reported for Jon Dunn)

  • They are still looking for 1-2 volunteers to facilitate and put together the agenda. Contact Jon, Rosy, or Carolyn if you are interested in helping.

  • There's a wiki page for the partner meeting. You can post topics to the page.

  • Jon is hoping to post hotel and travel details soon.



Hyrax-Valkyrie survey

Steve Van Tuyl, Tom Johnson

Steve reported on the status of Hyrax resourcing:

  • The Valkyrie, batch round-tripping, and permissions groups are resourced.

  • The analytics group still needs resources. Some folks have expressed interest, but the group is on hold until they have more

  • The Hyrax Working Group has 2 devs and 1 coordinator. They are moving forward with a skeleton crew, but would like more people. John Weise said they might be able to add someone.

  • Contact Steve if you have resources to contribute to these groups.



Open Repositories contributions

Chris Awre

  • An additional week has been added for proposals to ORE.

  • Chris advocated the value of proposing Samvera-related sessions to this conference.

  • Collaborating on sessions is highly encouraged.

  • Mike Giarlo and Justin Coyne are working on a proposal for repository sustainability with a focus on software development practices. They will likely touch on Samvera.

  • Wednesday, January 16th is the extended deadline for proposals.
