2. Development Planning
Call Number Normalization
No news this week.
Bootstrap Theme Deprecation
Demian posted a strategy to vufind-tech; no objections yet. Will implement once fully migrated off bootstrap at VU.
PHP 5.4 upgrade
Still waiting for upgrades at VU to be able to proceed on this.
Authorization
Demian is giving some thought to role-based authorization functionality in VuFind. He will post some details to vufind-tech soon. Please share use cases.
3. 2014 VuFind Summit
No news this week, but registration should be opening very soon.
4. Other Topics?
There was some brief discussion of replication misbehavior experienced by Anna. Demian suggested that perhaps a Solr upgrade is in order soon, though there are some SolrMarc-related limitations there that need to be investigated. He will see if he can find time to investigate further.
Next Call
The next call will be Tuesday, September 2, 2014 at 10am Eastern Daylight Time (14:00 GMT).
