HI all,

We’ve come to the end of August, and nominally we can start back up next week.  We have a couple of small issues that have been brought to me:

1. There is a request from RA SIG to add a “Deceased” flag to the user data.  This would only ever be populated manually, and would be used for things like overriding fines/fees for patrons who have passed on.
2. There is a request (from Duke specifically, I believe) to add a ‘Department’ field.  It’s not in the user metadata, and I can’t find any notes that specifically mention discussion of this in previous days of yore.  I would imagine this is something that would need to be added to the bulk user import interface as well as the UI.

Unfortunately, I have a partial conflict next Wednesday. It was the only time I could find to do an on-site interview for a hire I’m doing, and I could start the meeting off but would need to leave by 10:30.

Do we want to have a brief meeting, or discuss in e-mail?  (Of course, y’all can carry on without me after I leave, too.)

Preferences?
