Steve van Tuyl | steve.vantuyl@oregonstate.edu | Hyrax Usage Survey Results | I'll present the results of the Hyrax Usage Survey - a survey that has been run every year (previously for Sufia) since 2013. These results will offer an overview of who is using Hyrax and for what type of application, and how those numbers have changed over the past few years. |
Steve van Tuyl | steve.vantuyl@oregonstate.edu | SIGAHR - where we've been and where we're going | The Samvera Interest Group Advising the Hyrax Roadmap (SIGAHR) formed in early 2018, re-energizing interest in the project, welcoming many new contributors, and helping democratize the governance of Hyrax. This Slack channel and regular meetings provide an open forum for discussion of Hyrax features, calls for co-development sprints, and enable developers, managers, and users alike to discuss the direction of Hyrax. Paired with the Hyrax Working Group and leveraging the strengths of the Samvera Community, the SIGAHR is drawing a path forward, galvanizing efforts in a diverse ecosystem. |
