Agenda

1. Full Text
   1. Update on last week's work - test plan and first test; cleaning up some issues around DOI and other searches, such as diacritics. Might need to use an analyzer through indexing process. Are we searching.txt files? in Unicode? Searching metadata as well and txt should be UTF-8.
   2. Anything needed from the group
   3. Plan for this week - investigating diacritics issues; will start looking into formalizing indexing process if time permits;

1. Blog migration - Grace working on last fixes for data. Going to run one last on accessibility ; TRB On 2/27 and should be able to start to push to production on 3/5. They do want us to present. Opportunities to look at before live.

1. Based on Susan's recommendations, finalize how we will proceed (i.e., implement a stop gap plan and/or identify where in timeline this will fit for addressing more thoroughly.)

Check for Susan's updated version to add to Gemini. Carolyn will create a Gemin issue for us to revisit in summer to determine how to move beyond stop gap. Might be of particular interest to Partners with their in-house publications.
