Quick update from Councils | @Craig McNally @Mike Gorrell @Kristin Martin | Technical Council Update: Accomplishments: Looking ahead:
Community Council Update: Product Council Update: New Onboarding Task Force (cross-council) created presentation and piloted with colleagues at Stanford, both those familiar with the project and those that are new to it Prioritization and Roadmap Working Group reviewed the existing roadmap Liked the connection to Jira and ability to track work done Feel like community priorities are not necessarily well-represented and this will be a big focus for group Performing further investigations on tool to support prioritization work, given growth of the community Want roadmap to reflect desired state as well as represent work completed
Documentation Working Group continues activities – Marcia Borensztajn returns for short contract to transition responsibilities to Paul Kloppenberg Conversations on ways to support existing Product Owners through assistants (e.g., Feature Owners, story writers)—conversations are still ongoing Some upcoming work Prepare formal quote for prioritization tool Review work in several areas: workflow tools/development, reporting options, and number sequence generators More on recruit and supporting Product Owners

Adopting definitions for FOLIO Terminology | @Mike Gorrell | Discussion and approval General support, except around the term "PLATFORM" Some distress over the fact that there are many valid and important uses of the work Platform (e.g. Platform Minimal or Okapi-Stripes Platform) and the removal of the reference/acknowledgement of these terms, in some people's eyes weakened the document enough that it should be resolved or at least referenced. CONCLUSION: After all the discussion we ended with agreement that the team working on the terminology document would take this feedback, adjust the doc to include the reference, and have it approved by all three councils.
