A group of EPrints developers met to try and progress the core of EPrints, and help each other get up and running with committing changes to GitHub.<br />
<br />
Our aims were:<br />
<br />
* resolve open pull requests (https://github.com/eprints/eprints/pulls)<br />
* resolve known bugs (https://github.com/eprints/eprints/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3Abug)<br />
* close as many other Issues from GitHub as possible (https://github.com/eprints/eprints/issues)<br />
* flag/tag/milestone remaining Issues<br />
* write (better) documentation anything we resolve<br />
* scribble (in a structured way) on this: https://github.com/eprints/eprints/network<br />
<br />
We discussed some 'QA' type process for reviewing commits:<br />
* Check install<br />
* Visual code QA (are phrases in language-specific files? Are files structured in the right way)<br />
* Documentation check (and e.g. include example config in defaultcfg if using a param to control a plugin)<br />
* Will it break multiple archives running under one EPrints install?<br />
<br />
<br />
Work was also undertaken to make an easy-to-use (and quick to get going) virtual machine, using source from GitHub.<br />
This should allow us (the EPrints geek community) to get up and running and doing '''useful''' things very quickly!<br />
<br />

== Accolades ==<br />
Adam spoke about adding technical-install accolades in the Bazaar:<br />
* one-click install<br />
* requires configuration (e.g. adding an API key, or turning come options on), with a control screen<br />
* needs additional resources on server (e.g. additional Perl packages)</div>Libjlrs
