Hi All,

We had a productive dev meeting today, just wanted to highlight some of our
discussions for the general list readers. If this seems useful I will try
to send these updates after each dev meeting:

The Onboarding tool
<https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=17855> still
needs more testing (see Jonathan's email here:
http://lists.koha-community.org/pipermail/koha-devel/2017-February/043481.html)


This tool will make it easier for those setting up a new instance to enable
necessary settings and configuration and generally make Koha setup more
friendly.

It was proposed as a possibility to roll the tool out in English first, and
add other languages as they are tested. Ideally we would have as much
testing as possible now. We will discuss and vote on how to move ahead at
the next Developers meeting (8 March 2017, 19UTC)

The ru-RU and uk-UA languages were discussed for possible removal as there
has been no maintenance, if you are using these or interested in helping
maintain (or have strong opinion) please let us know.

Testing and QA teams can always use more help so let us know if you are
interested.

Other interesting notes:
ElasticSearch dependencies are being packaged by Mirko
Jonathan continues work on refactoring and moving things to the Koha
namespace (see here
<https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/showdependencygraph.cgi?id=16846>
for Koha::Patron status)
OverDrive integration has been pushed to master

The next meeting will be 8 March 2017, 19UTC

I hope to see you there.
