Meeting 20120530

Development

• 0.9 Feature freeze is today, a meeting yesterday clarified the roadmap
• Joseph has been working on normalization of maildir to access formats... adding files to transfer to represent the directories. Will normalize the directories, identified by these files. (sound complicated and obscure.. it is, but should work well for our needs) in theory, rights can be applied to these files, which will extend to the DIP.
• PREMIS 2.2 has been approved, so update of rights module is now on 0.9 roadmap: https://www.archivematica.org/wiki/PREMIS_metadata:_rights_-_0.9.

Deployment

• Courtney has been working with UBC Library on procedures for all three external media situations: 5.25" floppies, opt disks, and hard drives. We'll have lots of different workflows for many different situations... for instance, at cov, she want to do some testing on their optical disk issues.
  • Three different types of fails:
    • disk won't show up at all
    • disk won't mount
    • disk won't image (some kinds of audio disks have been failing to image)

Testing

• Evelyn made a table for Austin to use for scalability test results at https://www.archivematica.org/wiki/Scalability_testing#Test_results

Documentation

• Evelyn has being doing lots of project documentation work for RAC and IMF on-site work these past two weeks.
• lots of installation tech support on the forums this week and other architecture discussions; great support from Artefactual. got lots of compliments about our fast, friendly responses on the discussion list. It makes a big impression.
