Attending: Susan, Benito, Cris (will be late), Tuy, Tim
Absent: Steve
To Do from July
- Susan talk to Tom Barton / Benno wrt alignment of OR with new venture to fill gaps in IDM
- Susan talk to Tom about IT ecosystem. How long to look for additional contributors?
- Susan talk to Jen about allowing simple RSS portlet in after all. Also talk about including search portlet - different function and still useful in 3.x in an case
- Susan and Tim work on fleshing out small project governance - group by function rather than technology. Conceptual - Product Suite Style Governance. Flesh out as proposal.
New Business
Process changes to accommodate expanded joint organization. This seems to be mainly directed at including communities of interest in incubation process. How is this different than communities of practice? Susan will walk through this with Patty but anyone else who would like to participate is very welcome.
Incubation portion of new Jasig web site. Tim took care of this while Susan was on vacation. Thank you! Susan review these pages and spiff them up - perhaps get new icon / logo.

Eric still on uP 4.0 |

Maybe make this unsponsored contribution. Benito ask Tom whether to do this or leave it as U Chicago offering. |
||||
James has not had time to work on it recently. Has it on radar screen but not sure when work will start again. |

Hoping to cut the uMobile GA right after the uPortal GA. Once that is done it can graduate. All requirements fulfilled except diverse community and adopters. Maybe need adoption to graduate? |
||||
Jen suggests waiting a bit more and give us a chance to consolidate on one project. When Steve created his portlet, he wasn't aware of the simpler configuration options in the news reader portlet, and the news reader portlet is being distributed by default as of uPortal 4. Particularly since we're distributing an RSS reader with the portal, it'd probably be best to just get all the features we want into one portlet. There's really no technical reason to have two portlets, and Jen integrated in the few features that I saw in his portlet that were missing from the NRP. |
||||
ThinkSpace wiki content was migrated to jasig (TSC). Pete's doc staff have been busy on the site, and they will be having a discussion with faculty on Aug 3 to flesh out more of the documentation. Pete is working on intro, scope and roadmap. The phrase "federal grant funding" has introduced some additional churning in the approval of contrib agreements. They are ready to commit code when that is resolved. |
||||
no change. |

Received open source licensed code from Xythos/Blackboard for required code snippets:https://files.xythos.com/company/Product%20Management/Releases/Open%20Source%20Code/XythosActionLicense2011%231.java |
||||
no change. Susan talk to Jen!!! |
||||
Still no official release. RC2 and RC3 but ready for GA soon. |
||||
Roadmap under construction and looking to connect to jira. Currently blocked from a 1.0 release by https://issues.jasig.org/browse/SA-1 pending on a release from Bedework. Project now has sponsor Gary Schwartz. Should governance be by Bedework? Susan talk to Gary. |

Eric is still very busy with uPortal 4 release |
||||
Susan will talk to Tom Barton about the future of this incubation project. Benito to locate the artifacts. Source download links at https://wiki.uchicago.edu/display/integration/IT+Ecosystem |
||||
Seeing steady progress |
||||
Email from Eric, "No progress, hopefully once 4.0 is out I can spend some time going through all the various portlet projects and doing general updates and get them through the incubation process as well." |
||||
Out of the office until August 9th |

Looking for a functional release |

Project lead pinged 14/7/2011. No response from previous emails. Andrew will be in Arizona in early August to talk to the Unicon people that are directly involved with the project. |
||||
ICLA and CCLA are on file now. This is now confirmed. Ready to move source into sandbox. |

||||
Some concern about this project. The project hasn't had much input from outside of the developing schools for a while, and its focus seems to be exclusively on one or two implementations. Perhaps the initiative for common effort between Jasig, Kuali, InCommon and others will include some energy into OR. |
||||
After the conference some UI improvements were discussed. RPI is making some local changes. Collaboration with ESUP contributers has not been happening though. Consider ending incubation in a few more months is no activity. |
||||
Project is proceeding. Three new sponsors have been identified for next phase of work. Targeted to exit incubation after GA release later this summer. |
||||
Should this be withdrawn to be unsponsored contribution since (we think?) the NewsReader portlet already includes all the functions? |

Jen is looking to have the new search feature in uPortal 4 to functionally replace this portlet. Susan discuss this approach. What about uP 3 users? Is function really the same? |
