Terms of Reference

  • The name of the IIG is the Islandora Documentation Interest Group (IDIG)
  • The purpose of the Islandora Documentation Interest Group is to develop and communicate a common approach to building and updating documentation.
  • Specific goals, activities, outcomes may include:
    • Assessing current documentation (Github and JIRAConfluence) for gaps and weaknesses.
      • How can we assess current documentation alongside the Islandora community, and make it simple for people to comment and contribute to documentation?
    • Advising on / enriching the documentation platforms for Islandora software
      • Developing new documentation in the current platforms.
      • Advising on the future of the documentation (where it would live, and how it will be updated)
      • Working to lower barriers to entry for creating good in-code documentation
      • Develop templates and best-practice guidelines for Islandora readme files and promote the addition of these to the software acceptance process (as a mandatory part of the acceptance process)
    • Ensuring a sustained effort towards documentation
      • Provide a workflow for adding new documentation with releases
      • Work closely with the release management team to prepare documentation for new releases
      • Find out how to get contributions from developers and add them to the current documentation
  • The interest group will meet once a month virtually (eg. via Skype). A call for agenda items will be posted to the Islandora Google Group 1 week prior to the meeting. The convenor will appoint a note taker for the meeting and meeting notes will be made available at some url.
  • The convenors will produce a report to be submitted to the Islandora Roadmap Committee following the IDIG’s meeting.
