Agenda

Action Items

Notes

• Request for additional agenda items

  • Partners Meeting conversation

  • E-Mail from Simeon on Friday, where they volunteered to work with Steering in order to present on June 12th (the next Partners Meeting)

  • Present the survey results and brainstorming exercise

    • Are we ready to continue with this work given the community loss?

    • If so, what are we going to present during the Partners call?

    • If we are not ready, we could always postpone; there is always another Partners Call

      • Nabeela can work with Simeon and Carolyn, and bring it back to work with Jon and Rob

      • This would provide time for finding the expectations of Partners

      • Maybe, then, the presentation can be delayed until July

    • Rob accepts either timeline

  • Nabeela will take the proposed approach where they work first with Simeon and proceed with the presentation for the July meeting

• Roadmap Survey

  • Are there any other action items from the survey results?

    • There were some specific things that Roadmap Council members needed to address for the council members?

    • No, this seems like a situation where further conversation will be needed

• Jen represents the Metadata Interest Group

• Julie represented for service providers and vendor solutions

  • Do we want to ask another service provider if they want representation in this group?

    • Notch8 and DCE have a presence

  • There was one more role, where Julie was on Steering, and it would be good to have somebody on the Council who is a part of Steering as well

• Updating the name of the Roadmap Council

  • Ensure that we define our roles well with the name update

  • Otherwise, we don't want to be a second steering group

  • We need to delay the naming exercise (particularly given that Mark was unavailable for this meeting)

• Nomination of an existing member of this Council to serve on Steering

  • Nabeela already has John Weise on Steering

  • Jen also has Carolyn on Steering

  • Notch8 is working on getting Kevin nominated

  • James would be eligible, but this would be a significant commitment

  • Mark might also be eligible

    • We can also offer a liaison

  • We should wait until after the election, and wait to see if there is someone who might be available

• Items for Future Meetings

  • Perhaps reflect upon the three goals which we are seeking to address

    • Code reclamation goal

      • There have been many shifts in priorities throughout the COVID crisis

      • Perhaps some of the goals might need to be adjusted

      • We still need to try and achieve the code reclamation by Samvera Connect

      • Vision was to create a path to make it easier for others to contribute

• Meeting adjourned at 09:27PDT/12:27 EDT
