Agenda & Notes

1. House Keeping Items
   • Any updates to previous action items?
   • Ok with filling out the form to be included in the next iteration of COIs
2. OCFL Java - next steps and considerations
   • Should we reconsider our relationship to larger library communities (consider slack space for example)
   • How does the need to find a home for ocfl-java impact our current "organizational model"
   • What are some other models that we might consider so the editors aren't responsible for maintaining software (e.g. drupal model; our extensions model)
   • What is the discussion we want to have with the community re: ocfl-java?
     • Adopt the Drupal model of "maintainer of maintainers". Rosy to investigate.
     • We will decide terms under which code comes under OCFL's umbrella. Whether or not code joins is up to maintainers.
     • Talk to Scott/Wisconsin about this and OCFL Java.
     • Tweak website to point at code4lib Slack & other comms channels. Rosy to investigate.
     • Oxford owns ocfl.io? Neil to investigate.
3. Discussion about in person meeting
   • Neil will be in the US this summer. Philadelphia 16-20 Aug. Kansas City 28 Aug-4 Sep.
   • When could people meet up?
   • Where makes sense to meet up?
     • Simeon's schedule conflicts with Neil's US travel, so that window is closed.
4. Review outstanding PRs
   • #590. Do we still need this since @zimeon is making progress toward the spec in markdown?
     • No, this will be superseded by the markdown move.
     • Speaking of Markdown: https://zimeon.github.io/ocfl-spec2md/spec
     • Older version (1.0 and before) will stay in ReSpec; new versions will be in Markdown. If something breaks in 1.0 we'll convert it, but not without cause.
     • Draft and 1.1 will be in Markdown.
