Drupal
- Updated schema_metatag (removed manual application of now-merged patch)and sitemap modules
- Updated the check_logged_in handling to allow the QDR SSO logout endpoint to not be checked - hopefully addresses occasional message about cookies and login problems on dev.
AnnoRep
- Investigated/fixed config issues on stage/dev
- Started investigating github issues re: fonts, images, rich-text in notes. Verified that including fonts in docs is a work-around for getting the right fonts, found how to retrieve bold/italic/hyperlink info in notes
Operations
- Investigated outages on stage - looks like it is getting scanned now that it is open - could change robots.txt at least. There are also log messages that S3 calls are failing - have not yet figured out whether these are from old datasets or the copied prod datasets (where attempts to write new thumbnails etc. would fail) or some failure on new/test datasets. Restarted payara on stage.
- Investigated use of excluded subject on prod - posted questions on slack re: whether to keep existing uses or not
Dataverse
- Created second PR with accessibility issues (mostly from Wave) - when that is merged, the community version will have all the applicable fixes from QDR.
- Updated tika and poi on dev to get security fixes. (FWIW: The latest now include log4jv2 (fully patched version) rather than log4jv1, which may cause concern/discussion at IQSS before these are merged there.)
Discussion
- Choices for handling excluded subjects (see slack)
- Change robots.txt on stage to stop friendly scanning?
Plans
- AnnoRep - continue to explore/fix docx/pdf github issues
- Ops
- Fix Subject choices
- Dataverse
- Deploy multi-license ~v5.10 for testing on stage if/when it looks OK on dev (i.e. is something OK for AnnoRep testers working on stage)
- Popup info accessibility - IQSS likes the recommendations from the source I linked to, so this can be implemented along those lines.
- QDAS planning/design/prototyping
- Switch previewer to zipped mimetype
- Add error handling for format variations
- Assess whether zip access is enough/project/other files need to be cached as aux files, etc.
- Still want to investigate the guestbook responses re version info not being included.
- TBD: FRDR Security
- Other tasks as discussed in strategic planning
