Quick updates only.  If we can't find volunteers for groups, we'll need to add the topic to our backlog and address it during dedicated discussion sessions.

• Configuration group
  • Ingolf Kuss advised that Olamide Kolawole submitted some comments and he and Julian Ladisch met to discuss them
  • Marc Johnson raised that it seemed unusual for a contributor to be raising suggestions on the pull request (rather than making edits) and could consider guidance on this as a possible topic for the next process review
• Translations
  • Craig McNally bumped the topic in the folio chairs channel and suggested it could be important to make progress on this before the next WOLFCon
• TCR Process Improvements
  • Maccabee Levine advised that this would be discussed at Wednesday's meeting and feedback / attendance from the TC would be appreciated
  • And that the group are also working with the PC chairs to improve the hand off process and to provide a communication plan for the changes

• Distributed vs Centralized Configuration RFC - DRAFT REFINEMENT PR: https://github.com/folio-org/rfcs/pull/26 - Olamide Kolawole will help the group

RFC Process Improvements:

• We need another RFC to update the metadata retroactively to reflect the new or adjusted statuses. - Jenn Colt will do this, hasn't finished yet
  
  • nothing new today

The announcements were made before the holidays.  No objections. Probably need to ask testing people explicitly.

Notes:

• Craig McNally - reached out to the test manager (Yogesh Kumar) today to check alignment on the plan for testing this and will follow up in a call

Standing agenda item... is there anything in the decision log requiring attention?

Standing agenda item to review/discuss any requested or required changes to officially supported technology lists

• Check in on progress... does anything else require attention?
• Next Important Milestone:  Review Ramsons (3rd party dependencies) and move from DRAFT → ACCEPTED by 16 Feb 2024
