Luna 6.0 Test team and Plan

Known Luna 6.0 Issues:-

Again, we are not sure when Luna 6.0 will be fully implemented.  In the meantime, we plan to proceed with testing and reload of Cornell Collections in test.

Passwords & User profiles:

Mira presented a new scenario for dealing with passwords and profiles, and suggests limiting the number to around three-four different profiles.  To implement these changes, we will plan to meet  first with those on the "front lines" of working with patrons (Susette, Karen, Greta, Jeanine), so we can identify the ideal scenario from their perspective.  We will then meet with stakeholders- RMC, KVRF, HFJ- to develop a new scheme and limit the number of p/w & profiles. 

Luna 6.0 

Surinder is working with Drake to get 6.0 up and running.  There is still no estimated date as to when this will happen.  Surinder will keep the group informed.

Danielle asked for volunteers to participate in developing a test plan for Luna 6.0.  In particular, we want to test 1) cross collection searching, 2) Luna & Webfeat (federated searching), 3) authentication, 4) Java Client and annotations.  Susette, Karen, Margaret, Mira, Danielle, and Rick will work on this (please let me know if I've missed anyone who would like to participate).

Greta and Jeanine gave an overview of the VRA conference they attended in San Diego, including some of the highlighted functionality of Luna 6.0.
