Previous TC decisions https://folio-org.atlassian.net/wiki/display/TC/DR-000009+-+Handle+i18n+where+messages+are+generated and
https://folio-org.atlassian.net/wiki/display/TC/DR-000012+-+Localization+parameter+for+back-end. There is a new proposal from Knowledgeware but a number of highly technical objections from within the community. There is a sub-group in the TC which includes Zak, but finding it hard to find volunteers to take the process forward.

Jeremy will raise the issue of getting the sub-group going, or discuss in main agenda

Platform/app formalizationAll

The group is now up and running, Kristin Martin is participating and Jeremy Huff hopes to also. Jenn Colt is wrangling the group and is working through the charge process. Will be discussion TC and PC questions at next meeting.

Jeremy notes that current governance structure is rather tied to the notion of modules, will likely need to change if the formalization approach changes

We note political and community impacts for what might be apparently technical decisions covered by TC RFC process

Things that could be better about FOLIOAll

FYI - Tom shared a first draft / summary of grouped items. Summary being produced and will be discussed at CC in new year.

Next tri-council meetingAll

Agree will use the PC slot 2024-01-18, 10am. Suggested topics:

  • Poppy retrospective? Lots of community complications and confusions about the RTR back-end introduction. Need someone with good knowledge to lead – Kristin will reach out to Khalilah about leading
    • Goals? Understanding of what really happened, action items for change
  • Should discuss "Things that could be better about FOLIO" later – not on Jan 18 but perhaps invite others to a CC meeting
