Koha wiki page development/testing is still ongoing, as is updating of older pages.

Mohan has just sent some new Koha ILS-DI revisions to Demian, which will be incorporated into the wiki as time permits.

Work is still pending on MeSH, DoAJ, PubMed Central and NepJol “open data sources” pages. Mohan also plans to contribute documentation related to integrating SubjectsPlus (which recently had example XSLT import configs added to the project) and Moodle (which is still being researched).

André and Demian hope to work on this during WOLFcon later in the month.

The schedule is complete. Please register if you have not already, and join us online if time permits!

André has received a first draft of the audit, which contains some suggestions but no huge surprises.

Initial results were discussed. André will take some follow-up questions back to the vendor.

One of our new members suggested finding a way to issue cybersecurity alerts for VuFind® that can make it into global CVE databases.

The OLF has provided a credit card donation page for us, which we can use as a complement to the “request an invoice” form.

Demian proposes setting up a vufind.org/donate URL that will make it convenient to donate. This probably needs multiple links – i.e. to the credit card form, the “request an invoice” form, and the RSP form. Maybe we can make big buttons to make this friendlier.

We have received a few donations so far, as well as a new RSP application. Demian is currently waiting for financial processing on these. He plans to start a spreadsheet in the project's Google Drive to centrally track everything, as it is beginning to get complicated.

Demian's notes:

• Should we mention other communication methods like Slack somewhere? Might be best not to name a specific technology, but maybe somewhere under “Contributors” we should add a link to the community support page. The Tech list is the primary method listed throughout the document, but in practice, Slack seems to be more popular. Consensus agrees that adding link to more options is desired.
• I've been publishing committer vote results in the newsletter, which in turn gets announced on the Tech list. This follows the letter of the document but maybe isn't exactly what we originally intended. Is adjustment needed/worthwhile? Maybe just mention newsletter instead of explicitly referencing Tech list. DK will adjust.
• The sentence “The Treasurer is not required to be a member of the PMC, but the Secretary should be a member of PMC.” is somewhat ambiguous – it seems to be saying both positions are PMC-optional, but maybe saying that more strongly for the Secretary. Should we change the Secretary requirement to “must” or “is required” to make things more clear? No objections to changing this.
• We say that “Any committer can merge a trivial contribution, even if it is their own.” I think we should remove “even if it is their own” since GitHub rules currently prevent this. Rephrase to make these exempt from 72-hour waiting period, but remove “even if it is their own” language. No objections to this.

Ere noted that we're still using https://vufind.org/jira as our JIRA link, even though it has moved. This is intentional in case of future moves/changes, to keep the URL under our control.

Some other possible items for the future:

• Develop a documentation maintenance plan
• “Good first issue” highlighting
• Investigate getting a VPAT
• 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.
• Investigate possible uses of AI for documentation, etc.

• Moravian Library is willing to contribute in creating new theme. Robert Šípek could work on it. Demian will devote some time to this on the next Community Call.

• Demian/André: continue work on Lokalise integration.
• Chris: Open PR incorporating feedback from Josef's accessibility review.
• Demian: Create https://vufind.org/donate URL that redirects to membership page; incorporate new credit card form when ready.
