-The latest release of the framework, RC7, addresses the remaining outstanding database problems that were preventing VuFind from being fully functional.  Demian will update Git shortly.  The final ZF 2.0 will probably be released very soon.  VuFind 2.0beta is also now feature-complete, thanks to Chris' help getting statistics up to speed.  This means we should probably start to plan for a release date for 2.0beta.  There is obviously a lot more work to do to refactor and clean up, but it's probably time to release an official demo that people can play with.+The latest release of the framework, RC7, addresses the remaining outstanding database problems that were preventing VuFind from being fully functional.  Demian will update Git shortly.  The final ZF 2.0 will probably be released very soon.  VuFind 2.0beta is also now feature-complete, thanks to Chris' help getting statistics up to speed.  Demian is planning an October 1 release for 2.0beta.  There is obviously a lot more work to do to refactor and clean up, but it's probably time to release an official demo that people can play with

 +Some discussion came up of the Z39.50 breakout idea -- this has to do with creating a generic ILS driver plug-in to pull status information over Z39.50 instead of using native ILS mechanisms.  The topic came up on the mailing lists.  Tod offered to discuss this further if people need more input, though he will not be at the summit.  He also mentioned SRU as another applicable protocol.
 +
 +This also led to some discussion of OLE/VuFind integration, which will probably rely on NCIP and SRU/SRW.  Z39.50 may also be available via a bridge application.
