9:15-11:15: Walk-through of customization and extension use-cases
For each of the proposed use-cases, we'll discuss:
...
Building on the discussion of customization and extension use-cases, and on the sustainability and foundation presentation, we'll review:
- The existing workflows /wiki/spaces/collectionspace/pages/666275647 for making contributions
- Gaps or weak areas in the existing workflows and process
- Facilitating cooperation and preventing duplication of effort
- Variants or different classes of contributions. E.g.,
- a new procedure vs. a new template,
- UI translations,
- documentation and translations thereof
- etc.
- Structure of the community repository
- Guidelines for adopters of contributions (especially templates)
...
- Configuration
- Using the common REST APIs
- data import and ETL
- http://issues.collectionspace.org/browse/CSPACE-3894 (adding/removing fields to groups)

- make sure connections are reused, etc.
- Starting point: http://wiki.collectionspace.org/display/UNRELEASED/Configuring+Caching+in+CollectionSpace (see the linked JIRA issue as well) - Aron

- Aron: Flow of check-ins with switch to git from SVN (particularly pertinent for the project team right now)
- When check-ins go from local to upstream, or through an origin repo (on a user's GitHub acct)
- How pull requests are handed - who takes care of them, who is notified about them
- ...
4:45-5:00: Wrap up, next steps
...
- How it's working for you
- What you need from it
- When it's appropriate to use it, and when not
- E.g. When not appropriate: UI development work, very rapid UI turnaround of HTML/CSS changes via local loading with record.html
