@Rob Kaufman

@Nabeela Jaffer

@Jon Cameron

@Steve Van Tuyl

 

Notes

  • Julie is starting at Notch8, more to come

  • Mentoring program

    • Will talk about it at SIGHAR

  • Steve will be starting a new position at the end of the month; will no longer be actively part of the Samvera community. There will be more discussion this afternoon at SIGHAR

    • Going to the Academic Data Science Alliance

  • Survey

    • Hearing from smaller, quieter institutions that are migrating to Samvera

    • Jon will be getting a doc together that defines permissions needs and scopes for Avalon and how that compares to Hyrax

    • Analytics - people can't commit until November

    • New IMLS grant to implement analytics in Hyrax (Oregon Digital)

    • In a follow-up email to institutions, we might pose the question of how managers can lock in to possible commitments so available resourcing doesn't evaporate

    • Steve hopes the community will keep the Hyrax Working Group going, good movement being made there

    • Refocusing the working group would be good

    • It would be good to make it easier and clearer to merge changes upstream to Hyrax, jump in on existing backlog tickets, etc.

    • Categorization and the ability to act on a ticket isn't necessarily technical (Github issues)

Next Meeting

  • Discussion of the email out to those who filled out the survey
