Kristin shared the summary of SIG conversations and action items

• Action items for PC- Improve communications PC-SIG; make the SIG updates more useful such as needs of SIGs for example- reporting needs across FOLIO; balance needs and visions of each SIG-maybe Roadmap will help with this; Project needs to have something to replace sprint reviews; resources needs and gaps and expectations example courses (reserves development); need for better test data and work on reference environment; onboarding working group help with connecting people resources with the needs and gaps in development and help with participants to feel empowered and to speak up; Transparency in allocation of development resources. Clear relationship between SIG effectiveness and satisfaction and PO/developer resources given to the areas of concern.

may be of interest for understanding RTL in Unicode: http://unicode.org/reports/tr9/#Formatting and https://unicode.org/reports/tr9/#Markup_And_Formatting

• Found during Nolana bugfest, Test - "Display effective call number string on item record".
• Assumed scripts with left to right are used in call number fields. If you use, e.g. Arabic or Hebrew, the fields get mixed up.

Image Added

• Stems from how unicode defines how right to left characters should behave when inline with left to right.
• Per rules it is correct, but results in wrong order of when effective call number is computed
  • Fields are concatenated with white space and follow the unicode rule that says if "neutral" characters eg. numbers, should be treated also as right to left
  • https://unicode.org/reports/tr9/#Markup_And_Formatting
• Are there any use cases for this? Is this required to fix?Not likely in German libraries
  • Not likely in German libraries
  • Cornell - no
  • 5C - no
  • Chinese libraries using FOLIO? not likely an issue due to directionality
  • Felix will ask HBZ
• Further discussion
  • Flexibility in general would be desired, e.g. customizing effective call number
  • Having the ability to omit fields like the enum./chronology from effective call number would be interesting as well
  • Charlotte will file a ticket <insert link> Charlotte Whitt 
  • Would be good to consider consortium and have this at, e.g. the campus level
