Attending:

Apologies:

• Demian: follow up with OLF regarding international payment process. DONE
• Demian: follow up with OLF regarding WOLFcon costs (if prior inquiry is not answered). DONE (answer still pending)
• Demian/Mohan: make further progress on updating Open Data Sources wiki pages. ONGOING
• Chris/Leila: make progress on video editing queue. ONGOING
• ALL: review the draft Registered Service Provider Agreement and leave comments for deeper discussion next time. ONGOING

Demian is still waiting for more information about online participation and costs, but we will need to make a decision soon given that the event is taking place in August, which is only a few months away, and we still need to put together a CFP, etc.

Demian (and Jan, if available) will be meeting with Beth German on May 17 to discuss further, and there is an OLF roundtable on May 19 at which further WOLFcon planning will take place. If others are interested in participating, they can reach out to Demian for meeting details.

Current assignments:

• Mohan: review/edit/update MeSH, DoAJ and PubMed Central pages; add NepJol page.
• Demian: InTech Open and Linked Data pages.

No progress since last month.

The JIRA migration was successfully completed.

Demian is now working with the OLF to set up some @vufind.org email addresses for standard activities (e.g. treasurer@vufind.org). This may take some time due to the complexity of DNS setup, etc.

Demian also heard from Scott Anderson (the OLF's treasurer) that international payment processes have been worked out. Those interested in learning more can reach out to Scott for details.

All outstanding JIRA tickets targeted for 8.1 now have open pull requests associated with them. See the 8.1 milestone in GitHub for all the details. If time permits, reviews/comments are appreciated to help complete this work. Pull requests #2420 and #1791 should be given some priority, since they are the remaining ones likely to cause language file additions, and they should be locked in before Demian starts the process of obtaining updated translations.

If we can complete outstanding work during May and obtain translations during June, a release during July seems potentially realistic.

The RSP agreement draft seems to be reaching a fairly stable state.

Scott Anderson from OLF has expressed a willingness to review a draft and (if necessary) pass it along to OLF legal counsel for further feedback once we are satisfied with our version.

Chris finished editing the most recent Community Call tutorial video, so we are caught up there.

The final outstanding editing work is the remainder of the 2021 Summit.

Some other possible items for the future:

• Develop a fundraising communication plan - after February resource planning
• Discuss a strategy for approaching VuFind services vendors (both for funding support and trademark compliance)
• Develop a documentation maintenance plan
• Investigate Dokuwiki enhancements (“old page” alerts, “page ownership” mechanism)
• Community Call restructuring / marketing
• “Good first issue” highlighting
• Outreach to forks for new feature contributions
• Marketing project (better VuFind definition, website improvements, etc.)
• Publication / presentation efforts related to PMC and sustainability
• Look at It Take a Village Toolkit Governance Activities.
• Look at It Take a Village Toolkit Technology Activities.
