+It may be time for a new point release to incorporate the "OCLC x-services shutdown" changes into an official release before the APIs go offline. (There are also several other bug fixes/translation expansions that might as well go along with them).
 === Improved Author Indexing ===
@@ Line 42: / Line 57: @@
 Demian changed TextFacetRaw to StrField following the previous call's discussion.
-We're still waiting for Solr 5.4 before doing further docValues investigation.
+We're still waiting for testing of Solr 5.4 before doing further docValues investigation. 5.4.0 is now released, and Demian will update the solr5 branch in the near future.
 === Javascript Reorganization ===
+Going very well. Mostly done and merged to master. Outstanding features: new lightbox design (will simplify code, but still has some problems that need to be worked through); VuFind object (adds namespacing to JS code; has been introduced in master, but more code can be moved inside it -- work is ongoing).
+Related: bootstrap3_list pull request should be merged soon.
 === Cover Issues ===
+As noted above, Demian has opened a JIRA ticket ([[https://vufind.org/jira/browse/VUFIND-1140|VUFIND-1140]]) to track the need for an API to retrieve additional cover details.
 === API ===
+No news this week.
 === Modularization ===
+No news this week.
 === Improved Use of Permissions ===
+No news this week.
 ==== 3. Wiki Reorganization ====
+Demian has completed a substantial update/reorganization of the wiki to further de-emphasize 1.x-specific details (without removing them entirely) and to make way for VuFind 3 and later without the need for additional reorganization. Comments are welcome.
 ==== 4. Other Topics? ====
+No additional news this week.
