[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Inaugural ArchivesSpace Core Committers Group

[Laney McGlohon]

The ArchivesSpace Program Team is pleased to announce the inaugural ArchivesSpace Core Committers Group. Code goes into the ArchivesSpace application from a variety of sources, and the core committers will be responsible for helping people with the process of contributing code to ArchivesSpace Github, reviewing and committing individual code contributions, and ensuring code contributions are properly licensed and follow best-practice guidelines. The core committers will also stay active in the community by welcoming new contributors and helping them get involved, monitoring and responding to issues on the ArchivesSpace mailing lists, and monitoring and analyzing relevant tickets on ArchivesSpace JIRA.

We thank the following individuals who have agreed to take on this important charge as part of this group:


  *   Dave Mayo – Harvard University
  *   Esha Datta – New York University
  *   Lora B Davis – Johns Hopkins University
  *   Mark Cooper – LYRASIS
  *   Steve Majewski – University of Virginia
  *   Laney McGlohon – ArchivesSpace Technical Lead

Next steps for the group are:

1.       Decide on communication pathways
2.       Decide on dates, times, and frequency of the core committer’s calls.
3.       Get contributor licensing agreements filled out and signed
4.       Review the Core Contributors’ Guidelines

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions about contributing code to the ArchivesSpace application or you would like to get involved.

Best,
Laney
