Minutes

1. We are still here. Seth is down a laptop.

2. Attend a webinar if you so choose. More of a technical design as it is a decoupled javascript app working with Islandora 8 on the backend. Register today.

3. Packagist is not updating with the moved tags, so it is serving old versions of islandora/islandora for the 1.1.0 tag.

4. Issues with transfer of files when generating derivatives.

   Actual problem was the cron was blocking transfers until it could finish but it took 20 minutes to complete. Disabling search indexing solved this problem.

   Could this be a MySQL connection issue? Its not interrupting the transfer, but the connection is held open until cron is complete.

   Seems like the easiest and smallest change is to have an option in Drupal to have the Source URL for the events to be the Fedora URI if you are using the Fedora flysystem adapter and you have checked the (eventual) checkbox.

5. Embargo module only dependant on Drupal core now has a video demo, please watch the video. Read the document and try it out.

6. Issue Round-up

   1. Force Drupal (or have an option) to make revisions for REST calls. Another column in the migration CSV which sends some data because you can't affect the Drupal entity.
