 +Due to the lack of interest in the Villanova Summit, Demian is hoping to participate more actively (via video) in the German Summit this September. More will be shared details as they develop.
 ==== 4. Other Topics? ==== ==== 4. Other Topics? ====
  
 +Demian and Ere discussed modularity (pros and cons of splitting functionality into separate repositories -- "light" code vs. convenience of maintainability, etc.). Mediawiki's Composer plugin to allow separate local dependencies was discussed as something that should be investigated (both as a possible tool for a more modular VuFind, and because it could be useful for other situations where local customizations introduce additional dependencies).
 +
 +Also discussed was Solr 8 -- Ere and Demian have not yet had time to look at it; further research will be needed before tackling the upgrade process.
