[Dspace-general] UPDATE: DSpace online community event: Outstanding issues for 1.6 - Tuesday 1st September 2009 6PM GMT

[Stuart Lewis]

Dear DSpace community member:

First ­ a big thank you to all the community members who joined in with the
first of the meetings we held earlier this week to go through the
outstanding bugs and issues in JIRA for DSpace version 1.6. The meeting was
very successful and we managed to cover about 1/3rd of the issues. A log of
the meeting is available at
http://duraspace.org/irclogs/index.php?date=2009-08-25

We have decided to hold a further two meetings at the same time / same
place, over the next two weeks (on Tuesdays, at 18:00 GMT).

We really would value your time and input. Without it we will won¹t know in
which directions to focus our developments. If you have bugs to report or
new features to contribute, please get these submitted to JIRA before the
event. If you would like to get more involved with the technical development
of DSpace, please come along and volunteer to address some of the issues
that we examine.

The event will take place online in the #duraspace IRC room. Details of how
to access this can be found at
http://wiki.dspace.org/index.php/DSpaceResources#IRC_channel

The next event is scheduled to start at 18:00 *GMT* on Tuesday 1st
September. A set of instructions about how the meeting will be run and which
issues are still to be examined is available on the wiki. Please take a look
in preparation for the meeting. If you would like to contribute but are
unable to attend on the day, please leave comments in the JIRA items, or use
the voting feature in JIRA.
