https://github.com/samvera/browse-everything/issues/210
U. Cincinnati
There was a fork for them as well, and reconciling this should be a priority:
https://github.com/uclibs/browse-everything
NU is using the released version
IU is using the release version
Science History Institute may have a fork
2 Tentative Work Cycles
1 reconciling forked code, as well as performing maintenance tasks, consistency between Driver APIs, shared specs, documentation
1 planning stage for the user interface development for browse-everything 2.0.0
James will contact Adam to refresh the conversation for UI redesign
https://github.com/samvera/browse-everything/issues/210
James will try and get others from the UX IG to evaluate this, at the least their guidance will be very valuable
Thomas has no strong feelings on the UX elements
This time works for everyone, ensure that the Doodle Poll offers this time as an option.
