Dear @Philip Durbin,
after having bothered you with issues for some time now, I can now announce that we can help do further develop Dataverse. Since January AUSSDA has support of the central IT service of the University of Vienna, a Scrum team will make the updates to our dataverse and have also resources to do develop work for Dataverse.
Murat Özcan murat.oezcan@univie.ac.at will be the developer, he is now ready for contributing, he has read https://guides.dataverse.org/en/latest/developers/index.html and https://guides.dataverse.org/en/latest/contributor/index.html . I’ve seen there are first issues https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/labels/good%20first%20issue with you as mentor. Can you please help Murat to get started.
To you have further relevant issues for the start, or should we already start working on our list, are there suitable issues for the start?

Many thanks for your help so far,
best regards from Vienna

Hallo,
i think, i will begin with this issue, as it is a good one for getting started
https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/issues/10523
your comments on it are very useful, thanks for that. i will let you know when i have something to check-in.
Looking forward to greet another fellow DV dev!
Feel free to reach out if you need someone in your timezone to talk to. :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:
Him joining us here on Zulip is usually the best way to get the ball rolling again when stuck somewhere.
Oh wait there he is! Welcome @Murat Oezcan ! (The two anonymous avatars looked too much alike :wink:)
@Murat Oezcan welcome! Yes, that one sounds fine. Please feel free to create a new topic until #dev to discuss it.
