[sakai2-tcc] Agenda - Re: Invitations sent for TCC - CLECC meeting this week

[Steve Swinsburg]

Define a fully fledged project in Jasig. Is the example uPortal?

Apart from the core portal, uPortal is a bunch of portlets, which all went
through the incubation process. Each portlet could be equated to a Sakai
tool.

I see a lot of value in ensuring that the current modules we have are
maintainable, still meet licensing requirements, have an identified support
team, are internationalised, and many other aspects, mostly technical.
There is a lot of amazingly crap and over complex code in various modules
that, whilst it still works, is a pain point for anyone making a
modification or extension, and if someone had some time could have some
love to make it better. That could be identified from the review.

We are also talking about periodic review of projects to ensure they still
meet the criteria.

cheers,
S
