Technical CouncilCouncil 

  • Consortia additions ( mod-consortia , ui-consortia ) approved
    • concerns from Security team and suggestions how to address
  • Browser support draft from TC

    • We are continuing to refine the statement in order to make it clear that our goal is for FOLIO to run well on a standards-compliant browser, and that we have chosen Chrome as a reference implementation of a standards-compliant browser (i.e., we specifically don’t want to exploit anything particular to Chrome).

  • FOLIO Project Technical Objectives & Initiatives
    • Accepted and will work out how to update and make use of this document
    • Based on much input and responding to both aspirations and current pain points
    • Similar issues as with Roadmap
  • Reviewing processes: planning breaking changes, tracking officially supported technologies in releases
  • Changes in progress for Java version, Kafka,
  • Monitoring AWS costs
  • ideas for possible budget surplus


Community Council 

Report from meeting March 27 to May 22 

  • Treasurer's update: funding is stable, with a plus of approx. $150,000 - $200,000. Ongoing discussion on how to spend this money
    • Discussion of PC's thoughts - aspects:
      • support for product owners, developer advisor, tools for the roadmap planning
    • Discussion of TC's proposal - topics:
      • FOLIO reference environment, community developer advocate, security audit, privacy, innovation grant,  Github GitHub Actions migration
    • Result: Discussion will be contiuned continued via Slack and follow up on the next CC (June, 12, 2023) meeting before going back to PC/TC
  • Council elections: PC/TC election polls are still open!  CC has made the decision to continue with reduced members. All nominees accepted and no election necessary.
  • Work on:  Evaluation Process for FOLIO Modules 
  • Finalization of the document about FOLIO terminology  
  • Wolfcon planning: discussion in CC. FOLIO planning group was formed.


Product Owners 

  • POs and dev teams continue to work on Poppy issues and refine features for "Q" release 
  • UATs are User Acceptance Testing is in progress or complete for Title-Level Requests (TLR) and Consortia
  • POs met with Jenn Colt to discuss JIRA and how the Roadmap team can align with how POs use JIRA
  • POs met yesterday to brainstorm WOLFCon session topics (see ideas: 2023-05-24 Product Owner Meetings). Some of the session ideas, like tutorials on searching Jira/Confluence as well as best practices for creating issues, might be areas where Product Council might want to help.
  • Two new assistant POs: Tom Trutt - Cornell (Item States) and Amelia Sutton - Five Colleges(Users) 
    • Kicking off onboarding 
  • Patty W. will be leaving her role as Users app PO. 


30 minWOLFCon topic generation

The first deadline for submissions is June 15. For meetings of the Councils, the thought is to have them the day after the WOLFcon scheduled dates (likely to be held in the University of Chicago library). This doesn't prevent Council meetings from happening during the WOLFcon dates (e.g. talking about the release management group and the new critical release process). Another session idea is a roadmap update and a review of the roadmap process. Another possibility is a cross-Council discussion of the module review process. FOLIO's approach to reporting could be a good topic; reporting has been treated as external to the system...what is the project's responsibility to provide connections and tools? Kristin Martin to start a list of ideas for sharing/forming proposals before the ideas are submitted to the FOLIO planning group

00:38:54    Owen Stephens:    I think the other side of the searching jira/wiki was not just making the most of search, but for those entering the data making the jira issues / wiki information findable by adding the right information to the tickets/wiki pages when they are created
