• Index Data having company meetup so I am running the Core team roundups
• Gap analysis team is working very hard to get the Q1 planning in place. This means:
  • UXPROD feature refactoring
  • Feature distribution across teams
  • Feature estimating
• Risk: there is a LOT of concurrent circulation work that needs to happen. We need to be very careful about how this is distributed across teams.
• Goal is to have the cap plan updated tomorrow

• Several Core team Q4 features are at risk, but I am reluctant to move them out of the quarter, as we are hoping we can make at least some progress before feature freeze. POs for other teams are probably doing the same. Here's the full list of at-risk features across teams. There are 22 (of the total 107 targeted).
• I have tagged the features and stories coming out of the November Chalmers visit. View the list here.
• Circulation is still a risk area for Chalmers go-live. Specifically:
  • Request policy still be designed (re-designed) and some elements may be moving to the Loan policy. Cate, Sean and Tania working to get this nailed down for the developers asap
  • While some aspects of circulation are independent enough to be worked by a team other teams (e.g. loan and request policy CRUD, extending the loan rules editor) making these new policies effective will really need to be done by the Core team.
  • Making policies effective needs to be done in exactly the same code being modified for other ongoing circulation features such as in transit to home location and fulfilling pickup requests. Not a lot of work can be done concurrently here.
  • Title requests - still not clear what the plan is here.
  • Library opening hours calendar - Sean is finding bugs and issues with this Qulto-developed app. Which team is responsible for maintaining it? Sean would be the best fit from a PO perspective given his other features are primary consumers of calendar data.
  • Here is a list of circ related features likely needed by Chalmers to go live which will need to carry over in some form to Q1. The list is long and there are dependencies.
• Leipzig is hosting a self-built article index and are providing the data to a number of German libraries, most of them using vuFind discovery systems (are mostly hosted by Leipzig). The infrastructure/community is named finc. They are now getting ready to re-implement their configuration software on FOLIO. The code will of course be open source and re-usable, if there are any institutions interested in this kind of set-up. I have implemented a JIRA project (UIFC) for them to track their requirements.

• Started sprint 52

• Backend issues critical for completing functional work:

  • CIRC-154: check-in by barcode API (IN PROGRESS by Marc) will be completed by the end of the week.

  • CIRC-146: Change status to "in transit" upon check-in (IN PROGRESS byt Marc) will be completed by the end of the week.

  • CIRC-150: validation of check-in/check-out SP during loan CRUD (IN PROGRESS by Kurt) required for UIU-485, will be completed by the end of the day

  • CIRC-156: dereference patron group ID to display the name along with the request (DONE, Kurt) no longer blocks UIREQ-114, needs handling of permissions
