2008-08-04 DOMS Holiday Followup Meeting

0. Practicalities

Attendees: KFC, EK, TSH (until 10.30), BAM, ABR, JRG

Minutes: KFC

1. Status

Before the holiday we had done our best to give Mjølner enough to get going on the GUI prototype.

This included:

• Completed base objects in FoxML
• Completed content model objects for Reel Tape collection
• Completed example objects for Reel Tape collection

We had also made overall decisions on system architecture and interfaces, but no testbed had been completed.

Some of the work had been somewhat rushed. Especially technical metadata in Premis was done at an ad-hoc basis. Also, premis XML seemed to have some deficiencies, EK will look into Premis and other metadata issues during the coming period.

During the time of most of the group's holidays, Jeppe had had a meeting with Lennerth. He requested the PID generator and the API-M interface as the next high priorities. Jeppe also did a lot of fine-tuning and correcting of the errors generated during the rush.

2. Plan

We will commence on true iteration-based developing from next Monday. Until then we will do the following:

• EK will look at metadata, and Premis in particular. KFC and ABR would like to discuss our found shortcomings at some point, EK will call a meeting when ready.
• JRG+TSH will discuss JRG's work before JRG's holidays starting Wednesday. TSH will take over from that.
• KFC will follow up on what has been going on and propose next iteration Monday
• BAM will review JRG's code
• ABR will look at Fedora 3.0 final, and validation in particular
