| Item | Who | Notes |
|---|
| Avalon Update | Avalon POs, Tech Lead | - Avalon 7
- Thanksgiving release
- Collection Landing page we are working on
- a react component based on a blacklight view
- very specific to Avalon's needs
- could be probably generalized
- Tom suggests that at connect we can present the react component
|
| Hyrax Update | Hyrax Tech Lead | - Hyrax 3.0 rc1 is out
- there are a few issues marked as release blockers
- WG resumes on Monday and will probably tackle those
- We will see rc2 and maybe rc3 to include some minor changes
- Hyrax has been pretty active the last week or so
- Wings work -
- there is now home for hyraxized Valkyrie documentation (documents preferred way of doing things on Hyrax)
- environment variable - hyrax-valkyrie - that can be turned on to use experimental Valkyrie features
- to enable testing of features we are confident about before they are actually pushed to hyrax adopters.
- not recommended for production instances
- Also there are now 4 hyrax builds running for any given CircleCI run; one of those has this variable turned on.
- env variable will not be turned on during QA for Hyrax 3.0

| Other updates of interest | Group | - f2f direct Sprint
- Potential Topics:
- Actor Stack not thread-safe as designed - effort towards replacing that
- Problem with the engineering of jobs in general (not idempotent)
- Perhaps more compelling - iron out the Valkyrie migration process.
- Maybe hosting in UC Santa Barbara
- Connect will also be in UCSB, so this would imply 2 trips there on the same year.
- Gauge the interest from the community during connect also, but informally
- Thanks for the document clarifying Wings/Valkyrie
