• Comments from the SysOps SIG:
  • this is an aggressive timeline that would require a lot of action from the community to achieve; does the community have the resources to meet these goals in the allotted time?
  • (Strategic Initiative for mid-2021 #2) documentation for set up and configuring functional apps would fall onto SysOps SIG; end user documentation is an important component for documentation as well 
  • (Strategic Initiative for mid-2021 #5) what is the plan for resolution? is this feasible for mid-2021?
    
  • (Strategic Initiative for mid-2021 #6) this would fall directly to SysOps to complete
  • (Strategic Initiative for mid-2021 #13) is FOLIO at a development point where this is a useful or practical goal? the documentation is not at a state to support "hackathons" yet
  • Are these initiatives too prescriptive and specific rather than painting an overall vision for the project?
  • Do the strategic initiatives cover the strategic objectives?
  • (Strategic Objective for mid-2021 #7) this is not a reasonable goal within this time frame
  • How is this document to be used by the SIGs?
  • Concerns over some of the wording for strategic objectives; many are not measurable or are vague with no clear path for achieving them; there are a mix of abstract and concrete objectives
  • Objectives listed between two and five years out are too far out and should be addressed sooner and as ongoing work throughout the project
