[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Linking location data to containers

[Schaefer, Sibyl]

Thanks Brad. Do you have a rough estimate of how long it will be before
this review occurs? We’re considering several options for managing
locations, and knowing when we can expect a review and the resulting
requirements is pretty crucial in determining which path we take.

Best,

Sibyl
