VuFind Developers Call Minutes: June 24, 2014
Attending: Filipe Bento, Chris Hallberg, Demian Katz
Agenda
1. Development Updates
JIRA Tickets
- VUFIND-988 - This ticket mentions an issue with Shibboleth and SSL. It may not be possible to solve this from the VuFind side, but please comment if you have ideas.
- VUFIND-989 - This ticket tracks a small bug (highlighting cannot be disabled) in the new EDS code.
- VUFIND-990, VUFIND-991 - These tickets propose new functionality for the admin module (a cache clearing tool and a user manager).
- VUFIND-992 - Basic Chicago Style citations have been added to the “Cite This” pop-up.
- VUFIND-993 - This ticket tracks changes in the Google Analytics API. Feel free to comment with suggestions on the upcoming transition.
- VUFIND-994 - This ticket is designed to collect comments on the Bootstrap 3 theme, since the previous VUFIND-987 ticket is so filled with migration notes that there is little room for discussion.
Pull Requests
- #165 - Merged: this PR makes some adjustments relating to VuFind's handling of MARC 785 fields with an indicator2 of 7 – the “Merged with … to form …” case.
- #166 - In progress: this PR contains CARLI's implementation of consortial features. Please take a look and share your comments.
- #168 - Merged: a small EDS bug fix.
- #169 - In progress: a proposal to add display support for the MARC 752 (hierarchical place name) tag.
2. Development Planning
Call Number Normalization
Luke has posted a revised call number handler on VUFIND-657, but it now has more dependencies than before due to changes in Solr architecture.
Eliminating -Xms from Solr Java Options
Following further discussion, it was decided that we probably should leave defaults as-is but provide better documentation/advice on determining proper Solr memory allocations. Any volunteers to help with this?
Bootstrap 3
Chris has continued work on this new theme.
3. Marketing
More work has been done on the revised current users page.
4. 2014 VuFind Summit
