* [[http://vufind.org/jira/browse/VUFIND-844|VUFIND-844]] - This ticket points out that the jquerymobile theme is using a very old version of the library; there are some known bugs that may be fixed by an upgrade, though upgrading will also require extensive analysis/testing in case of BC breaks. | * [[http://vufind.org/jira/browse/VUFIND-844|VUFIND-844]] - This ticket points out that the jquerymobile theme is using a very old version of the library; there are some known bugs that may be fixed by an upgrade, though upgrading will also require extensive analysis/testing in case of BC breaks. |

| The Git repo has been tagged so that we can identify which code is distributed with which releases (starting with VuFind 1.3). |
| |
| Tod is making progress on incrementally reimplementing Al's customizations. |

=== GitHub Migration === | === GitHub Migration === |
| |
| Demian has created a [[https://github.com/vufind-org|vufind-org]] organization in GitHub and moved the [[https://github.com/vufind-org/vufind-browse-handler|vufind-browse-handler]] repo there. The main VuFind codebase should follow shortly. David will help set this up as well as look into options for disabling the Sourceforge repo in a friendly way. |

| Jonathan Rochkind has begun work on a SolrMarc alternative called [[https://github.com/jrochkind/traject|Traject]] which uses jRuby in place of Java/BeanShell and has a newly-designed architecture. He is looking for collaborators to help finish up the work. |
| |
| Filipe mentioned [[http://heelhook.github.io/chardin.js/|chardin.js]] -- a "self help" library for embedding tutorials. He shared a demo [[http://iia.web.ua.pt|here]] (click the question mark). |
| |
| Filipe also mentioned [[http://www.elasticsearch.org/|elasticsearch]] as a possible Solr alternative. David said he had looked into it and concluded it was not a Solr replacement, though it is useful for real-time searches in more limited applications -- Solr is more robust. |
