Attending: Filipe Bento, Chris Hallberg, Demian Katz, Sean Purcell, Ben Wiens

Agenda

1. Development Updates

JIRA Tickets

  • VUFIND-926 - This ticket contains some discussion about OAI-PMH harvest/import performance.
  • VUFIND-927 - Interaction of combined search and autosuggestions has been improved.
  • VUFIND-929 / VUFIND-930 / VUFIND-931 - These tickets cover several new Summon API features – batch ID loading, “Topic Explorer” and keyword expansion. All have now been implemented.
  • VUFIND-932 - This ticket addresses some inconsistent displays related to course reserves (the issue is now fixed).
  • VUFIND-933 - This ticket is designed to collect thoughts on Overdrive API integration.
  • Additionally, more small bootstrap/bootprint tickets have been opened and resolved.

Pull Requests

  • #49 - Minor CAS authentication improvement – merged.
  • #50 - Jetty configuration fix to avoid problems with Solr admin UI – merged.
  • #51 - Minor Aleph driver fix – merged.
  • #52 - Italian translation improvements – merged.

2. Development Planning

Bootstrap Theme

eDisMax

Demian investigated failing over to old Lucene behavior when encountering - / NOT operators (which cause problems with eDisMax). Unfortunately, old Lucene behavior doesn't handle these cases properly either, so that doesn't solve anything.

Performance Testing

PHPMD

Demian has been working on cleaning up messes detected by PHPMD. Mostly low-hanging fruit (unused parameters/variables), but this is still helping to find and fix some minor bugs.

2.2 Release Target?

1.4 came out in late January; would 2.2 be appropriate on 1/27/14?

3. Other Topics?

Next Call

The next call will be Tuesday, November 26, 2013 at 10am Eastern Standard Time (15:00 GMT).
