| Announcements | Beware of the time switch in 2 weeks: meetings are an hour earlier for Europe Welcome to Paul Kloppenborg who is BSZ's new FOLIO project lead | |
| Community Resource Issues | 1) FOLIO Documentation. Marcia Borensztajn's contract with EBSCO has expired (ended officially 12/2020, was funded by EBSCO until end of September 2022, now her work has really expired). A critical role when the documentation effort was getting started. How do we ensure sustainability? Explore a short term contract (announcement came as a surprise to many) for Marcia? Other ideas? Mark J: there is no one whom we can address her role to Harry / Dracine: her main work was coordination, release management for documentation, manage process for Google Season of Docs, organization and structure building, PO role for the documentation working group, address end user instructions and sync them with releases, reach out ot the SIG's for input, reach out to specific PO's, maintain different types of docs: essential platform doc and offcial end user docs Mike: evaluate the option to extend Marcias contract a bit to enable a sustainable bridge to another person taking over Boaz: is this an ongoing need or a temporary task? Dracine: it is ongoing - without Marica the documentation would not be at this point. It is critical to the project. Tom: where does Documentation live? (Dracine: https://docs.folio.org/) Harry: Marcia received her directions from Harry. Boaz: Tom: who would manage her replacement? Dracine: Her role is a kind of a product owner → Head of PO's (Khalila) → in the end the PC 2) FOLIO Reference environments - Index Data announced last spring it could no longer donate DevOps resources to manage these environments as well as making the releases. KitFox picked up the release work - these reference environments are no longer being maintained. Call for donated resources? Small contract with Index Data or EBSCO? | |
