PR Review
Review issues:
PR review coordinator for next time:
Notes
2b: Fritz discovered an odd behavior when attaching multiple files (10+) to a work through the form. We discussed back and forth the reproducibility of the problem and possible causes. Tom J would like to see us take our time and diagnosis this one correctly. Is it a problem with the job? The locks? JQuery uploader? Can we reproduce outside of the GUI? Fritz will open an issue to explore the problem.
2c: To deal with the caching problems with thumbnails and Universal Viewer, Daniel will update his PR to use the fcr:version image URI. Chris C's manifest concerns are noted and Tom J is inclined to support the solution.
