Roadmap
General consensus that the 9/2 roadmap discussion went well. The adoption of new technologies should be done in a way that tries to minimize pain to adopters and developers. Unicon anticipates being able to apply resources under contract towards making progress on the roadmap.
uPortal Sustaining Subscriptions
On 9/1 the uPSC approved the new uPortal Supporting Subscription program. We discussed how to reach out to organizations so they are aware of it. Aaron and Christian shared information they have gathered on schools that are using uPortal.
Building Community
The February ESUP Days will include more sessions on uPortal. Jim and Drew are hoping to be able to attend and present. We discussed making more use of https://apereo.github.io/ for blog posts. We discussed potentially moving the uPortal web site to GitHub Pages and potentially implementing the user manual tusing markdown. Aaron started work on making updates to the current uPortal web site.
Other
uPSC elections will be in October.
