- Community Update Meeting Feb., 11, 2022
Technical Council: - Review requests: ongoing. Approved mod-inventory-update, a sort of back-end update assistant. Re-evaluation of mod-ldp and ui-ldp are under way. Looking for review teams for three other modules: ui-bulk-edit, ui-marc-authorities, & Translation App.
- Recommendation to include criteria around architectural fit, duplicating functions
- Finding reviewers is not always easy, modules may require reviewers with specific skills/knowledge
- Translation App has significant implications for our approach to translations, may be a larger review/conversation.
- Hosted AWS environments. Costs have increased over the last year, TC has been asked to review and make recommendations for changes. Will organize a group of people much closer to operations to advise.
- Council Goals/Objectives: Reviewing FOLIO Vision, Strategic Objectives and Initiatives for TC responsibilities. Drafting our own objectives/initiatives document and setting some goals. Expect to have something to report out for quarterly Community Update.
- Technical Decision Process: Main issue is how to make technical decisions without making TC a bottleneck: which decisions need to be elevated to TC, and can be made elsewhere and by whom? Has been slow to make progress, forming a subgroup to focus on this.
- Governance issues: working though expectations for participation, how to allocate work if there are no volunteers/need to spread work around, processes for creating subgroups. The current load is driving basic questions of how we work.
Capacity Planning: Product Owners: - Lotus release: POs are working hard to wrap up this release. There are several features at risk for the release and we are addressing these risks.
- Team discussed how to incorporate User Acceptance Testing (UAT) earlier in the release cycle.
- User Acceptance Testing is in progress or complete for > Title Level Requests, Export orders in EDIFACT format, and Authority control.
- Morning Glory: POs are beginning to plan for this release
- Team met with Anya to discuss Support SIG and how POs can assist them. One action item: Ask FOLIO Implementers and SIGs to attend Support SIG to help review issues.
