Liaison Updates

@Alexis Manheim , @Tod Olson , @Jennifer Eustis

CC: Scheduled meeting cancelled this week

TC: Reassessing Officially Supported Technologies (OST) for Trillium and Umbrellaleaf. Schedule delays interact with in-support periods for 3rd-party frameworks. Largest effect is the need to move to Spring Boot 4.1 instead of 4.0 in Trillium.

RMS: no meeting this week

Trillium Deadline PC Endorsement Process Questions

@Charlotte Whitt @Caitlin Stewart

Trillium (R1 2026)Preview

Deadline for acceptance of new modules by Technical Council at Trillium (R1 2026) is 3/27. For modules that should be evaluated by the PC, this needs to be done before (or at least in tandem with) the TCR. Has the PC evaluated what they should in advance of that deadline? PC needs to do outreach to dev team/POs and ask if there is anything that needs to be presented and endorsed. Should we ask Oleksii to add PC deadline to his timeline, perhaps one sprint before TC deadline?

Integration tools Potential Sub Group Update

@Martin Scholz

@Martin Scholz @Lisa McColl and @Charlotte Whitt met on Monday 1/12 and decided not to form a subgroup for now and will decide after talking to the Implementers SIG on 1/27 and Sys Ops SIG on 2/3. Working on data sources list to perhaps put on the FOLIO wiki. Charlotte is looking at the ARLEF matrix to align both sources.

Mod Linked Data Import Question

@Christie Thomas

mod-linked-data is in review by the TC right now. Is PC endorsement also needed? There is already PC endorsement of the linked data app. Do individual modules need endorsement or are they all covered by broad linked data app endorsement? 

Consensus was that it would be impossible to present on every module, especially if changes are at the code level. 

Takeaway -- this module is covered by the previous endorsement of the linked data app. No new review is needed unless there is some sort of significant UI or functionality change or new addition.
