OpenEMR Admin Meeting Notes - 2026-03-03

OpenEMR Development
1

Module organization:

  • Moving stuff out from core makes upgrading much more straightforward, leveraging tools like dependabot to patch security changes, etc
  • Concerns noted about github organization as stuff moves from core into separate modules

Releases:

  • Increase cadence to avoid merge conflicts, etc
  • Publish security warnings immediately after release (once the code is out, people will figure out how to exploit regardless); continue to focus on making upgrades easy
  • Aiming for next week for next security patch

Misc:

Next week:

  • Remove saturday call, move to work week? Thursdays?
  • CodeRabbit

Another item for next week if there’s time:

  • Explore possibility of moving ccdaservice to own repo (unless native php conversion is close). Give it its own docker setup. Could use submodules to minimize deployment changes from today.

Also:

  • look into setting up a regular “release engineering” meeting, independent of the normal admin calls.
  • admin email setting page
