Full steam ahead!
Following on from our user group last week, the DMPonline team met yesterday and has prioritised the feature requests you raised. Ray Carrick started work for the DCC on Monday so we have doubled developer effort, and with Marta rejoining later in the year we’re pressing full steam ahead!

Below is a summary of how we are scheduling work. You can see this reflected in the ‘user group’ tickets on the backlog board too. Bigger pieces of work like versioning will be scheduled later to tie into other plans around DOI minting.

- Upload documents to DMPs #2233- postponed until we migrate to Rails 5 as this enables that. Will schedule in November team meeting.
We’ll be meeting with Maria Praetzellis next Monday too and will feed these activities into the broader DMPRoadmap work programme. This will help us set the focus of each sprint e.g. completing accessibility tickets, improving the usage dashboard / admin interface, and progressing the machine-actionable DMP agenda.
Our American DMPTool colleagues will also be visiting Edinburgh from 13-15 November. We have a number of new team members with Maria replacing Stephanie Simms, Magdalena starting as Customer Development Manager and Ray and Marta rejoining the team as developers. The meeting will let us get to know each other better and define our longer-term vision for the open source codebase. Stay tuned!
