PC update

@Jesse Lambertson

PC Meeting Notes

• update from Dracine

  • honeysuckle is released next week (week of thanksgiving)

  • bugfest update from Anton

  • fewer failed test cases

  • easier release time

  • retrospective of goldenrod release 

    • required many hot-fixes along the way

  • many challenges

  • there was an under-appreciation of some of the bugs

  • dev leads and POs are working alongside tech council to offer better feedback opportunities from SIGs

    • hopes of a more iterative approach to feedback

  • there were some features that other stakeholders viewed as bugs 

  • module dependency (that modules be grouped, like inventory, it seems that splitting things is a bit problematic)

  • talk of app bundles? (or app feature bundling?)

  • no product council meeting next week

• Ann-Marie update

  • thunderjet is working on tags and filters on instance, holding, and item (should be done by the end of next week(

    • will present on these at a later MM SIG meeting

  • data-import meeting

    • index data is doing most of this work

    • they want to be sure that the permission to trigger the OCLC single record import is separate from other imports

    • separate permissions granted to the user (vote for 'yes' of support from the MM SIG)

    • from chat (The use of the magic button, is that separate too, or part of the regular Data Import permissions?) 

      • much liked

      • from chat (

        I think that all permissions need to be more granular and specific. It should be part of the conversation when discussion of new/old features happens.)

      • There is design behind permissions

      • Ann-Marie from chat (FYI - back on permissions - here's a doc that the POs maintain with the permissions for various apps. Each app is on a separate tab. Ask the PO for the particular app if you have questions. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1IJnlWvi4k-wFatDNimx9fQ375evHSIIxtGMookHvs-I/edit?usp=sharing )

      • From jackie S in chat (Thanks Ann-Marie. It would be great to be able to translate the permissions here with place in the Users App where permission sets are created/permissions are set. The naming convention is not always easy to parse into what the permission allows or disallows)

No meeting next week

Happy U.S. Thanksgiving

PC Vision & Strategy

+ New Governance Model

@Laura E Daniels

Introduction

Vision and strategy paper

Comments and feedback are requested and will be accepted until Friday, November 20, 2020

New Governance Model

Feedback on new governance model

____________________________

Continued from last week

notes:

• What will the User Group or the SIGs be in the future?

  • how will we demonstrate issues and ask for solutions?

    • crowd-sourcing?

  • add comments to the Vision and strategy paper above by November 20, 2020

  • Charlotte asks if a User group would be like a support SIG?

  • How will the implementers SIG or Support SIG evolve?

    • will there need to be some division to avoid one too-large group (might get unwieldy)

  • ref: bywater customers and the other communities they support who may not be their direct customers

  • vendors who want to support folio also will need to get involved in the community

  • Governance model(s)?

    • Product council / community council (which is new)

      • seems to suggest the Community Council will be taking over some of the work the Product Council has been doing de facto

      • Seems to have been working between Product Council and stakeholders group

      • Technical council (TC) is working on technical things

      • Suggests SIGs (like MM SIG) are in the Working Group section

      • SIGs currently report to the Product Council (PC)

      • the managing of the money is also important and is connected through everything

      • How to contribute expertise and money (some will contribute one or the other, not necessarily both)

        • Membership falls under these various lines of contributions of kind or money

      • Asking: do voting members all contribute some kind of money?

        • community is defined as having a Jira account?

        • framed around elections?

        • Policy making takes place elsewhere

        • Big conversation about representation on councils (one seat per council by each institution)

        • how to move governance to the way Koha is governed

        • How is the community being defined?

          • how to be open with the awareness that development that tools need resources in the form of $

          • Look at the governance document linked above (feedback deadline, November 20, 2020)
