Agenda

Minutes

Who's recording minutes? Bill

Tracking tasks

• CAS Steering action items now tracked in JIRA: https://issues.jasig.org/browse/CASST

• Tasks are assigned to cas-steer chair Marvin by default. Is this good enough, Marvin will triage? Important to be able to model tasks without an owner? Marvin, you cool with doing or delegating all tasks assigned to you?

Notes

• capture issues going forward, run in current issues that make sense
• review/discussion of CASST-1 (hashes on download artifacts) - agreement to follow up on cas-dev, 3.4.9 target for having hashs, Marvin to follow up with David Durham

Jasig 2011 conference followup

• BoF notes
• Presentation slides
• Lakshmi volunteerism

Notes

• cas-steer slides posted by Andrew
• BoF notes still need attendees
• Lakshmi (Oakland) volunteered to be CAS Client Liaison. Role is to coordinate between CAS Client projects to help with feature parity, release coordination. Bill will follow up Laskshi regarding volunteer role.
  Bill volunteers as a community mentor for Lakshmi.

Documentation

• CASUM/docbook status update
• Roadmap

Notes

• Marvin: Strategy for completion. Porting from wiki to docbook. Add new content. Get docbook
  stubbed out to get more help (Marvin). Non-blocker for 3.4.9.

Tracking tasks related to documentation

• Too many JIRA queues? Exactly the right number of JIRA queues and need to use them effectively? Not looking to make a mountain out of this molehill, but trying to get to better clarity...

Andrew Petro's suggestion:

• Use CAS (cas-server) queue to track tasks/issues related to the DocBook documentation. This documentation is in SVN with the cas-server source code, versioned, tagged with it. Therefore tagging and releasing cas-server tags and releases documentation, and it's meaningful to be able to talk about the documentation tasks completed for and the documentation defects in CAS 3.4.9, e.g. Use "Documentation" Component to track these issues.
• Use CASW to track CAS "documentation" (website, wiki) issues other than in the formal, versioned-with-CAS-server docbook, since it doesn't make sense to talk about these tasks in terms of defects in a particular cas-server release version, their being continuously pursuable outside the context of specific relases. Rename this queue to CAS Website rather than CAS Documentation to help make the distinction clear.

Notes

• Scott to take strategy/use of jira on cas-dev

Community Call?

• Who owns making next call happen?
• July?

Notes

• Marvin will own this going forward - with full latitude to make it work

Release process

• Status of checklist
• (Pedantic) mechanism for executing checklist – wiki page per version release in which to check off items (discussed at Jasig)
• cas-dev committer votes for release?

Notes

• adapt Apache style release voting for releases
• https://wiki.jasig.org/display/INCU/Voting+Considerations

Jasig demo site, CAS in

• Draft a cas-steer representative or other to serve on /wiki/spaces/MARK/pages/103954394?
• CASST-8 tracks getting back to Tim about this opportunity

Notes

• near term let uP steer go forward with out any hindrance from cas-steer
• Marvin interested in throw away CAS servers for integration testing

Versions

• Evolve from tip of CAS-3-4-maintenance towards an evolutionary 3.5 in svn/cas3 trunk, moving revolutionary cas4 to svn/cas4?

Notes
