One of the major goals of the IMLS grant is the creation of resources that allow us to collaborate on new development.
The purpose of RSCEL is as much about creating a thriving development community as it is creating a collaborative user community. The one won't really go anywhere without the other.
So we have an RFP hitting the street in the next couple of weeks, on behalf of the grant, to develop a shared enhancement database where we can
- Enter new software and enhancement ideas
- Review them as a community
- Endorse or modify
- Prioritize
- Offer to contribute toward cost-sharing
- Convert the ideas into a specification format that a developer can easily work from
- Publish requests to the development community
- Track request progress
