The new year began with a flurry of VuFind development. While no major new features were introduced this month, a significant number of bugs were fixed, and further groundwork was laid for improved static analysis of the code. Additionally, several large projects made some forward progress: theme improvements, database code modernization, and the introduction of support for more citation formats using Citation Style Language (CSL).
The Project Management Committee has continued to plan improvements to the project's sustainability through participation in the It Takes a Village Toolkit beta testing program. The PMC has also begun discussing a “community sprint” model to better coordinate large tasks within the project. Finally, the group released results from their Understanding Discovery Platform Usage Survey, conducted late last year.
