VuFind Community Call Minutes: May 5, 2020

Attending: Jeannie Colson, Chris Hallberg, Demian Katz, Robert Lange

Agenda

1. Development Planning

Migration to Symfony Console

This work is now complete, as discussed in Demian's console migration blog post. It will be merged soon, barring objections. (There were no objections on the call).

Newsletter Highlights

The April, 2020 Newsletter was discussed.

Accessibility Improvements

Chris is collecting all accessibility changes in release-5.1 so we can have more accessible releases of every release from 5.x onward as needed. There is a pull request (#1609) with a TODO tracking progress on this work – leave questions/concerns/feedback there. Hoping to wrap up in the next week or so. There's also an #accessibility channel in the VuFind Slack for discussion. Thanks to WebAIM for WAVE and training support. Chris is also using a tool called Axe Coconut to complement WAVE.

Browse Handler Optimizations

No news.

2. Video Session: XML Indexing

Demian demonstrated harvesting OJS using OAI-PMH and then indexing the results with XSLT; a video will be posted soon.

3. Other Topics?

None this month.

Next Call

The next call will be Tuesday, June 2, 2020 at 9am Eastern Daylight Time (13:00 GMT).
