Notes

Establish common goals: What do we want to accomplish together?
- Software and community development - increase engagement, increase capacity, increase capabilities
- Given the amount of time we have together, what seems doable?
- Sharing the vision for the platform
- BD/DGI talking and collab
- Shared framework, make it easier for folks to use modules; align on how to work on implementation
- Sharing news that things are being collaborated on, share it early and often: raises awareness and morale * Motivates and stimulates the community * Communications and best practices that have achieved by consensus are so good to have, really important to get a dialogue
Roadmap as a framework
- Accountability is a challenge for us as regards to the community
- Create a doc where we can all add our upcoming directions/contributions
- Not just what you are doing but what you plan to be doing
ICC: questions about our relationships to the roadmap, division of labor bw leadership and ICC
- Definition vs facilitate its implementation? Didn’t really manifest
- Co-equal collab bw the two: we are working on together but at some point we will want to have a clear notion and who is responsible for what and how we collaborate. Make sure to be clear about who does what
- Use the roadmap to communicate and build community effort
- Terms of Reference to help us define roles of the groups?
- Focus on the practical challenge of aligning effort
- Our (joint??) responsibility is to synthesize these efforts and understand community needs and facilitate that work
- May 4th for when we share the spreadsheet Everyone in this joint meeting adds in?
What are the parameters of these joint meetings (topics and decision structures)?
- Composition of the ICC as folks who don’t nec have decision making power, not the same for the Leadership, using this joint meeting to help with that?
- Staffing
- Events/Cons
Product owner role, starter site development, and the big picture -- discussion?
- We think the sheet above will help with this as a starting point
Islandora Ambassadors program -- discuss revisions, can this go forward for IslandoraCon?
- We looked at the document and discussed a bit, and it’s good to go
- We’ll review after the Con and see how it went
- Public comment? We’ll send it out
- There was some discussion about where things are getting asked/answered; pointing folks to the right channels? How to more effectively funnel?
  - An intro to the Isandora Slack channels
  - General channel gets renamed to Islandora mailing lists? That would help divert
  - Assess and prune the existing channels. Create a channel guide? Do we have a paid subscription? Yes, Pro Plan!
Islandora Events -- May and June Open Meetings, future IslandoraCon/Camps?
- Planning, who does what?
- Put a call out for 2024
- Discuss at next joint meeting?
Interest Group and Code of Conduct Committee Updates
- IR:Circle back to Rosie about a demo starter site?
- DIG: they are working on the survey
- MIG: ICamp comments/suggestions; EDTF dates discussion coming up
- CoC: document processes work
Open Meetings
- April pretty much set
- May: DGI tool for migration, maybe Florida too?
