A meeting outside the normal process to address tensions in the project using the work on Data Import as a template for discussion. The was work on the "FOLIO Story" now that the project has been around for a number of years; there was a story at the start, and now it has evolved as the project has evolved. Also discussed the community prioritization process. The roadmap is looking to improve the process for getting out information on what is being developed by the various teams; the goal is to surface what is being worked on and what functionality is not being worked on. As the project has grown, the need to be more clear and transparent across the project has become a key point. The TC is going to take on the process for enabling the ability for the platform to be updated at the app level. It has been challenging in the project to bring in the contributions of organizations that have a single developer to contribute to the project.

If you have further ideas, the best place to contact is the FOLIO Prioritization Process Working Group.

15 minDeveloper Advocate proposal

CC interested in moving forward with the Developer Advocate role, and has asked that TC and PC refine the proposal, esp. the scope of work, management support structure, and preferences for scenarios.

Can there be a paragraph that describes how this position would interact with the current teams? To include code review when necessary? (There are occasions when a code contribution needing review comes from a team other than the primary developers of the module.)

CC is seeking input before its July 10th and July 24th meetings. They are looking for comments on the scope of the position, which will tie into the expense to the project.

30minElections and PC rolesAll

Co-Chairs: No one reached out looking to be co-chair...it's not too late!
Secretary/Minute-taking responsibilities: Charlotte Whitt, Owen Stephens, Martina Schildt, and Jennifer Eustis volunteered to be part of a rotation for taking minutes.

Liaison to TC (for the Wednesday TC meeting; Tod is the liaison from TC to PC) -

Liaison to CC - Jesse has volunteered already

SIG updates and Liaisons - look at the "last updated" column. If you are interested, put your name in and update the date. (Also update any information — changes in SIG conveners, etc — as necessary.) PC members should do this before the meeting in 2 weeks.

5 minWOLFCon updateJesse Koennecke 

WOLFcon has about 72 time slots total across the three days. 94 sessions were proposed (some were proposed as lightning talks or session topics that can be combined). Communication will be going out over the next couple of days to merge sessions to get everything in. The draft schedule should be going out in the next two weeks...first to presenters to review for conflicts, and then into Sched. It is about 80% FOLIO with a good chunk of VuFind sessions plus GOKb and ReShare and some general open source questions.

As of last Thursday, 100 onsite registrations (about half of what is budgeted for covering costs and in line with last year at this time).

5 minPC Meetings in July

Next week is July 4th holiday in US; next week's meeting on the 6th is canceled.

Other outages: canceling July 20th

Could use another member on the prioritization and roadmap group; Charlotte volunteers.

00:24:58	Ian Walls:	surfacing what IS being worked on is good, to avoid duplicative effort.  But it seems unlikely to me that there are important things NOT being worked on that resourced institutions are a) unaware of and b) have spare capacity for
