There will be no meeting next week, 6/22

If anyone from the PC will be at ALA and wants to get together, contact Kristin Martin

MM SIG will talk about data import follow up today

Need to elect new chairs, co-chairs, Secretary and note taker(s)

20 minBrowser support statement

Previous call for official support beyond Chrome to Firefox, Edge, and Safari
Zak Burke did most of the work to craft the statement
TC concern -- what does support mean, would there be a large testing commitment?
Statement focuses on standards compliant browsers, Chrome is the reference.
Addresses issues in non-Chrome browsers that are compliant and the desire to have support for at least one open source browser, but acknowledges that we can't test every change with every browser

Agreed all around that this is an elegant statement, no objections expressed

Owen pointed out that we need to be consistent and create guidance along with this and follow through if needed, normalize expectations; Tod suggested getting statement approved and then using guidance Owen already wrote as a starting point, have a version of that be a section on the same wiki page

No objections, statement approved

5 minFuture topicsall

Charlotte proposed talking about lessons learned from Duke shifting to Alma.
Brainstorming. While Karen and others from Duke are still around.
Kristin asked Karen to bring back to the Duke team to ask about this idea.
Talk more privately? Or at the PC? What could have gone better and resulted in a different decision.
Karen will do that and let us know in the next few days.
