Fundraising for technical editor (update) | @Mike Gorrell & @Simeon Warner | Two requests have gone out to FOLIO Members. As of 2022-11-14 we had commitments from 3 organizations (Five Colleges, University and State Library Darmstadt, Germany, and GBV) totaling $4,000. Others are considering. @Paul Kloppenborg, BSZ Konstanz volunteered to step into the Tech Ed. position with his team → any support from Marcia is very welcomed New effort from CC to extend Marcias contract for a bit longer @Mike Gorrell - Action item: post another call to the community for the necessary funding

Filling Anton's Q/A role | @Mike Gorrell | no job description available → request to @Hkaplanian → Action item: @Mike Gorrell will reach out to EBSCO Is there information about his work and how it shall be continued in the future available? @Kristin Martin : we need a general understanding how the community is supposed to fill positions. We can't ask every week ad hoc to step in a more or less 1,0 FTE job and commit a trained person or fund one. Cross Council Chairs Meeting tomorrow (Nov. 29, 2022) → will address this topics Chat: @Ian Walls : recommendation: pause feature development, and have the existing teams focus on making FOLIO easier to deploy. This debt needs to be paid, because the interest is becoming unaffordable as we continue to spend
Von Marc Johnson an alle 04:19 PM
Ian, what was the context for that recommendation? Was it about the plan for community funding?
Von Ian Walls an alle 04:20 PM
it's an alternative to continuing to ask the community to provide more and more money, and instead focusing the currently-dedicated expertise towards making FOLIO easier to work with.
feature development will of course still happen, but I would recommend that not be the focus; in my opinion, the tech debt needs paying first.

Functional Criteria Group | @Kristin Martin | Presentation of work from the Functional Criteria Group -
Document → add comments here! Criteria Process desciption Draft MoU
Von Boaz Nadav Manes (Lehigh) an alle 04:22 PM
Can we explain what is “module” in this document?
Von Simeon Warner (he/him) an alle 04:24 PM
Folio module types ?
Von Marc Johnson an alle 04:25 PM
I wouldn’t consider that
Von Tom Cramer an alle 04:26 PM
is there a list of current modules somewhere?
Von Marc Johnson an alle 04:27 PM
The closest approximation to that is the responsibility list
FOLIO Module/JIRA project-Team-PO-Dev Lead responsibility matrix
Von Tom Cramer an alle 04:28 PM
thank you Marc.
Von Marc Johnson an alle 04:30 PM
We need to be careful when we talk about doing the same thing. A module being a substitute for another is not the same thing as having multiple modules that overlap from a functional perspective.
Von Boaz Nadav Manes (Lehigh) an alle 04:30 PM
Is there a publicity/marketing piece to be an “accepted FOLIO module”?
Von Kat Berry | UMA/5C an alle 04:35 PM
Big thank you to the Functional
Von Boaz Nadav Manes (Lehigh) an alle 04:35 PM
“Additionally, Contributor supports FOLIO’s Vision, Strategic Objectives and the governance model for FOLIO, and agrees to abide by community practices and the following principles: “
It says that in the MOU
Von Tom Cramer an alle 04:37 PM
Do you want to briefly touch on license? The margin notes say “Some disagreement at PC meeting about whether we should transfer copyright or license openly and do not transfer copyright - would like further discussion at CC meeting.
Von Marc Johnson an alle 04:40 PM
Tom, that has come up in other discussions in this area. We likely do need agreement on that
Von Marc Johnson an alle 04:39 PM
Who is the FOLIO manager?
Von mir an alle 04:40 PM
Dracine Hodges Von Marc Johnson an alle 04:46 PM
The other one I mentioned was mod-entities-links
Von Boaz Nadav Manes (Lehigh) an alle 04:47 PM
Are these “apps” or “modules”? CAN WE Add a definition of app just as reference to this doc as well/
Von Marc Johnson an alle 04:48 PM
Boaz, We have no official definitions of modules or apps Von Simeon Warner (he/him) an alle 04:50 PM
I agree with Kristen - anything
Von Marc Johnson an alle 04:50 PM
Apps don’t exist from the perspective of these processes
Von Simeon Warner (he/him) an alle 04:51 PM
@boaz - per Kristen’s earlier comment, nobody knows how to define and app separate from the UI button
Von Marc Johnson an alle 04:51 PM
Apps aren’t realised in FOLIO in any way today
Questions How to check, if a module is already under development? Prevent duplicates? FOLIO is already large - doesn't need to be extended, where it is not needed Technical framework of FOLIO Marketplace would make it easier - but not in place right now
@julie.bickle is leading a "Future FOLIO Built Group" - this paper above is working with the current framework Is there a motivation of groups to get their modules into the flower releases? Is is "just approved" module good enough? What is the process now? Who will sign the MOU?
Naming of the modules
Action Item: provide final feedback from CC until Dec, 7, 2022 → then the PC will take over! Example: Serials management work (Duke, GBV, K-Int) → serves as a test case Marc: 2x Open Access apps and mod-entity-link would go through this process in the first place When does a "process" start? Aspect: If you want to have a module in the flower release → go to PC first and sign a MOU
