Notes

Old Business

The team is satisfied with where the Security Response Protocol is. Discussion of a community response period so we know what others thinks (esp. the response team).

New Business

De clawing the lobster

  1. We discussed how to bring Islandora-CLAW repositories into the Islandora organization. Landed on bringing in the repositories and having Islandora 8 release branches, like how things have worked with Islandora 7 and 6 branches. CLAW will be split into "docs and issues" repo and "versions" repo.
  2. Travis setup needs to be considered. Probably a separate repository - they could probably go into dev-ops repo to pull for setup and testing.
  3. Tickets on CLAW repo need to be moved. Right now they can go into a "docs and issues" repository. Islandora 7 uses Jira, whereas Islandora 8 uses Github Issues. Need to make sure we can keep things separated and workflow clear. We can use this method to transfer tickets: https://help.github.com/en/articles/transferring-an-issue-to-another-repository
  4. Down the road, we might want to use more drupal.org features for tickets / code. Right now it's not really a good option as the tools there are a little outdated.
  5. Once the repos are moved, there will be two sets of committers operating on the same repositories. It appears that restrictions can be applied to branches.
  6. Danny will start moving things around - migrate the repositories, move issues and sort out the committer permissions. A few new committers might need to be added to the Islandora organization, if they aren't already Islandora7 committers.

Docker

  1. Bethany and Derek talked about the Islandora Collaboration Group's (ICG) work on ISLE and our trajectory to dockerize Islandora 8.
  2. Concern is that Islandora is a small community with not a lot of folks to maintain things.
  3. Some want to install on bare metal and some want containers.
  4. Danny talked about responses from the recent survey about Islandora 8. Docker in survey got a lot of “no’s”. There are “yes’s”, but lots of “no’s”, which is surprising. Danny thinks it makes sense to be dockerize because CLAW has a lot of microservices, and also to maybe use kubernetes someday.
  5. ISLE is working towards monthly updates. Concern regarding this from Islandora7 perspective - who will maintain this?
  6. We should also think about the community building side of things as well as the technical side of things. This type of thing can democratize the use of Islandora software.
  7. Maybe we can see how Ansible scripts can work with docker? Can Ansible scripts bootstrap docker? Some merging of techniques here?
  8. We need to balance work and technical debt in taking on something new.
  9. More research needs to be done about the synergy between Ansible and Docker. Maybe they could work together. https://docs.ansible.com/ansible-container/ https://github.com/geerlingguy/drupal-container

Outcomes

Danny will start moving CLAW repository around.
