Time zone inclusiveness | 2023-09-20 Meeting notes Meeting Hygiene and Efficiency Subgroup | Follow up from WOLFCon what can the PC do this year discussions. It seems we can find a time that works for US ET and Australia/China (7:00 PM Boston, 8:00 AM Beijing, 9:00 AM Canberra) , or Berlin with China/Australia (2:00 PM Beijing, 4:00 PM Canberra, 8:00 AM Berlin) but finding one that will work for all would be problematic. The best is probably 7 AM Boston, 7 PM Beijing, 9 PM Canberra, 1 PM Berlin. It would be even earlier/later for some of us and other regions may join if we can find a suitable time. Should be consider alternating times once or twice a month? https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/meetingtime.html?iso=20230928&p1=43&p2=33&p3=57&p4=37 |

| Entities Management followup. Will reach out to the MM-SIG | Feedback from MM SIG conveners regarding final report from the Entity Management Working Group 2023-08-31 Metadata Management Meeting notes | Should the MM SIG take over Entity Management work (or at least be the lead), should it be a new SIG, under another group, etc.? Then it was pointed out how much MM SIG already has responsibility for and that there are other groups like Acquisitions and ERM that would have a big stake in this as well. Waiting for co-convener Felix Hemme to return from vacation to start a larger conversation. | but PC notified and had an initial discussion on | |
| Flower release schedule - release dates and/or decreasing the number of annual releases, and how this fit in with the re-architectural decisions. | Follow up from later than expected Quesnalia release date, feedback currently being gathered |

| Establish criteria for newly developed apps and code contributions | In coordination with Technical Council and Community Council, what is PC's criteria for accepting contributed code. What alternatives exist if a contribution is not accepted; what does it mean if something is not accepted. In the context of the LDP inclusion discussion, the PC identified the need for its own criteria for accepting apps into the reference environments. For instance, does an app meet the style guidelines? And later in the meeting, is there a support commitment from the developers? FOLIO Scope Criteria Group formed, meeting starting in December 2021. Update in June. |

| Keep a list of existing apps and their state of maintenance, their status of integration (tight or just loosely), developer team, responsibility, connected MoU's about maintenance | From 2021-09-30 Product Council Meeting notes | The Product Owners have created a Team vs module responsibility matrix. Harry is developing a simplified version on a single slide as well as a list of orphaned apps and modules. Having a list of orphaned areas is useful for when an organization joins FOLIO and wants to work on something. It is possible to have orphaned modules that don't in turn orphan an app (the single sign-on module is an example). There is another category of apps for which a team performs periodic maintenance but there is no active development (updating dependencies, for instance). An additional acceptance criteria for contributing code could be a memorandum-of-understanding to support the code for an explicit period of time. What is the maintenance commitment for code contributed by established partners? |

| FOLIO Technical Pain Points | from Tod Olson | Part of the TC Goals & Objectives process has been to identify technical pain points within FOLIO that impede development and operations. We plan to look at underlying causes, come to agreement on some remedies, and use this to inform our priorities. Like any form of technical debt, these will require resources to address, but will pay dividends if addressed well. See: FOLIO Technical Pain Points - DRAFT (in progress) |
