Villanova has successfully registered VuFind as a trademark; this move was intended to protect the project from future name changes (since a legal complaint about naming caused the Hydra project considerable inconvenience a few years ago). We now need to do some work to put the ® mark in various places.

Leila volunteered to help with the graphics.

Demian will put together a wiki page about the trademark.

Villanova and the OLF are continuing to discuss the move of VuFind into the OLF; legal review is ongoing.

The focus on the VuFind 8.0 release has distracted from this; it should get more attention post-release.

André suggested getting the Learning VuFind book sorted out before the Summit in November, since it will get attention at that time.

The call for papers closes in two days.

VuFind 8.0 will be released in one week. Please test/review the latest code so we can catch any outstanding bugs before they are released!

As of today, all open JIRA tickets are resolved (apart from the translation task, which will remain open until the release in case of late contributions – but most expected files have already been received).

There are two open pull requests that might be worth considering for inclusion in the 8.0 release: #1962 (utilize icon helper) and #2121 (new truncation mechanism).

The exercise we tested during the September Community Call was productive and yielded a number of potentially valuable ideas and suggestions.
