  • Triage/Rebasing for Q1 (+Q4 2021) planning this week - carrying out next week.
  • PM support for OSS Hypha in a state of flux while we understand where time is support and by whom.
    • Eriol: To this point, Maintainers calls, Adopter Calls and all ‘other’ PM work doesn’t have to be a single person taking on the role. It’s possible that in the Governance discussions that OTF (+Reset + SimSec) have been having any ‘role’ could be done by anyone regardless of their support/funding source. It’s an OSS project after all which means it’s open to contribution however that contribution is ‘supported’.

Fredrik files (review of recent releases ( https://github.com/HyphaApp/hypha/releases ) active dev tasks/bugs)

  • 2.2.0

    • Pushed in the unfinished? Sage Intacct integration - won’t be used anytime soon but good work has been done and didn’t want to ‘leave’ in a PR
    • For applicants: Logged into Hypha , doing an application, name and email field will be pre-populated

    • Squashed some bugs
    • Updated packages
    • Finishing up workflows for invoices (OTF feature?)
    • Contracts interface and how they (staff) want to build contracts - where things should be saved etc. (OTF feature?)

  • Translations technical clarifications via Fredrik. Ref Ideation Call: Monthly Ideation meeting: 2022 March 29th - #2 by georgiamoon

    • Translations end up as a file format .po standard used by many software packages
    • Most people will not enjoy editing them in a text editors and there are websites to edit e.g. weblate and other stand alone apps. Gives a nice interface for non-devs
    • Local computer apps can connect to other spoken languages dictionaries etc.
    • These will all spit out a .po file.
    • Eriol had some questions about what happens next re. Monthly Ideation meeting: 2022 March 29th - #2 by georgiamoon
    • Is this a conversation we want to continue? Is localization a functionality Maintainers want to pursue for Hypha Core?
    • Understand workflow of what adopters need to use transifex/Weblate (open source) – documentation to give adopters the information they need to get started let them choose what works best for them.
    • Broader conversation about Ideation meetings/work groups and their effectiveness for moving forward an idea, or should there be a definitive end when the ideation call is over?
    • AP: Eriol will add an improvement issue to the greyed out name field about where users can go to change name/email if names have been changed. Done: Greyed out name and email on application form - info to help user update these details · Issue #2794 · HyphaApp/hypha · GitHub
