PC meetings has introduced a new schedule: Thursdays 10 am - 10:55 am EST

3 new subgroups:

1. Re-architecting impacts: Wiki Page. The working group has had 2 meetings. Purpose: evaluate the proposal for Re-achitecting the FOLIO as product. This proposal was presented by Vince Bareau and Craig McNally at a couple of sessions at WOLFcon.
2. SIG Updates: Wiki Page. 4 members. Reviewing the monthly SIG reports while there is a sense that the current isn't surfacing problems and we want to restructure this. This group is also trying to think how this ties in with the Roadmap. The subgroup will also look at the scope, and model for the Re-architecting work presented by Vince Bareau. This new work need to be anchered in one of the existing SIG. Kristin Martin suggest that the PC do a regular SIG report in one of the upcoming meetings in October.   J. Eustis: Group is creating a template to submit issues to PC. 2nd meeting is tomorrow.
3. Meeting Hygiene: Meet first time yesterday, and will meet every 2 weeks. Converted the ideas from the PC shoulder meeting on 8/25/2023, and converted it to a spread sheet: a) structure, ...

      Meeting times to be more inclusive for people not is Europe and US. 

List App: This app was approved by the PC, but the TC review is still in process. Will meet tomorrow for final decision.

Creating/Updating TestRails Presentation slides:

If folks in MM SIG have time or inclination–it would be fantastic to have help with writing some of the cases that pertain to existing JIRA's or tests that relate to workflows, etc. that we work with in day-to-day life. 

View presentation slides for: key terminology used by TestRails; how to get started contributing to TestRails; how to find (and/or create) tests to work on; sample TestRail cases.  For guidance on navigating TestRails it may be useful to watch recording of today's meeting.

UXPROD-3473 - Getting issue details... STATUS

Continuation of discussion from last week's meeting.  JIRA for adding copy icon to Instance Classification: UIIN-2580 - Getting issue details... STATUS

UXPROD-3473 : Strip leading, trailing, and double spaces out of data in some elements (instance, holdings, items)

Spaces get saved and are indexed that way

WolfCon conversation just discussed leading and trailing spaces

We should think about which elements we want this for (or for which we would NOT want this)

Leading and trailing spaces should not be stored - can't think of a use case where we would want whitespace retained
