TCR-33
-
Getting issue details...STATUS
- update from Jenn Colt?
PC still discussing
Some discussion about it having UI in settings, front end may get adjustments. Some discussion about whether to go ahead and work in parallel with PC just to have more time. Will proceed.
Jeremy will work out what order/whether to do in sequence/parallel to work on these. Starting on TCR-37 probably makes the most sense since it is lowest level.
DCB getting more PC discussion as well
Moving forward on these due to time constraints
There are many TCRs for Q. Is this something we should flag? Can TC get them all done? Practically we need to be able to work in parallel with PC.
Did we drop the explicit contact from PC from the TCR process?
TCR group will consider all these sequencing issues and try to figure out a recommendation
Presentation related to mod-batch-print, discussion focused largely on how the batch print jobs for reminder notices are exposed in the UI and whether the module itself is optional.
Presentation on Direct Consortial Borrowing, did not get to discussion.
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 - RFC has been created so close subgroup and move work to the RFC for configuration, will work on composing the group
Breaking changes - have volunteers Ankita, Zak, Jeremy. Will sort out their next steps
Translations - conversations in council
TCRs - group still meeting
Application formalization RF draft - Craig will work on
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
Maybe we should aim to start looking at this on so we have time for discussion/adjustments.
Versions for the components:
Resume discussion at an upcoming dedicated topic discussion?
NA
Zoom Chat
Topic Backlog
Decision Log Review
All
Review decisions which are in progress. Can any of them be accepted? rejected?
Translation Subgroup
All
Since we're having trouble finding volunteers for a subgroup, maybe we can make progress during a dedicated discussion session?

Officially Supported Technologies - Upkeep
All
Previous Notes:
A workflow for these pages. When do they transition from one state to another. Do we even need statuses at all ?
Stripes architecture group has some questions about the Poppy release.
Zak: A handshake between developers, dev ops and the TC. Who makes that decision and how do we pass along that knowledge ? E.g. changes in Nodes and in the UI boxes. How to communicate this ? We have a large number of teams, all have to be aware of it. TC should be alerted that changes are happening. We have a couple of dedicated channels for that. Most dev ops have subscribed to these channels. How can dev ops folk raise issues to the next level of community awareness ? There hasn't been a specific piece of TC to move that along.
Craig: There is a fourth group, "Capacity Planning" or "Release Planning". Slack is the de facto communication channel. There are no objections to using Slack. An example is the Java 17 RFC.
Craig: The TC gets it on the agenda and we will discuss it. The TC gets the final say.
Marc Johnson: We shouldn’t use the DevOps Channel. The dev ops folks have made it clear that it should only be used for support requests made to them.
Jakub: Our responsibility is to avoid piling up technical debt.
Marc: Some set of people have to actually make the call. Who lowers the chequered flag ?
Craig: It needs to ultimately come to the TC at least for awareness. There is a missing piece. Capacity Planning needs to provide input here.
Marc: Stakeholders / Capacity Planning could make that decision. Who makes the decision ? Is it the government or is it some parts of the body ?
Marc: the developers community, the dev ops community and sys ops are involved. For example the Spring Framework discussion or the Java 17 discussion. But it was completely separate to the TC decision. It is a coordination and communication effort.
Marc: Maybe the TC needs to let go that they are the decision makers so that they be a moderating group.
Jakub: I agree with Marc. But we are not a system operating group. Dependency management should be in the responsibility of Release management. There are structures in the project for that.
Jason Root: I agree with Jakub and with Marc also. Policies should drive operational/release/support aspects of Folio.
Jason Root: If the idea of “support” is that frameworks are supported, then of course the project should meet that.
Marc Johnson Some group needs to inform OleksAii when a relevant policy event occurs. These documents effectively ARE the manifestation of the policy.
Craig: This is a topic for the next Monday session.
Craig to see if Oleksii Petrenko could join us to discuss the process for updating the officially supported technologies lists.
Dev Documentation Visibility
All
Possible topic/activity for a Wednesday session:
Discuss/brainstorm:
Ideas for the type of developer-facing documentation we think would be most helpful for new developers
How we might bring existing documentation up to date and ensure it's consistent
