Unreleased

Added

  • Course repository created from maehr/open-research-data-template at commit c6ec5bc.
  • Course pages: setup, syllabus, exercises X1–X6, solutions, instructor notes with a UI verification log.
  • Reveal.js slides for the session, self-contained for offline use.
  • Requirements register with verified rules of the DH study plan (2025) and RSL Phil.-hist. 21.
  • Synthetic dataset of 30 periodical records with its data dictionary.
  • Versioned example backlog (8 epics, 34 sub-issues), milestones, decisions, and risks.
  • Seed script for the example repository and the public showcase Project.
  • Annotated screenshots of the GitHub interface, captured on 2026-10-12.
  • Thesis documentation template, decision record, and issue forms.
  • GitHub cheat sheet with the terms of the workshop, the browser paths, and the matching git and gh commands.
  • Page on project-management approaches (phase plan, Kanban, Scrum, and a hybrid), as the KSL description promises.
  • Page “After the workshop” with the private-thesis transfer, a weekly review, and a monthly check.
  • Three screenshots of the verified Project copy, workflows, and access settings.

Changed

  • Course facts follow the KSL course entry. The pass rule (D-010) and the licence (D-005) are decided.
  • Design, fonts, and sidebar navigation follow maehr/all-data-are-local. Each exercise opens with “At a glance” and ends with “Next”.
  • X2: learners derive one Issue from a requirement. X3: learners copy the showcase Project and decide priorities and dates. X6: learners choose and justify one of three options.
  • X5 separates coordination, storage, publication, backup, and preservation, and warns that a release archive holds every tracked file.
  • The slides cover the whole course, with screenshots.
  • The research question matches the synthetic data.
  • npm, Python, and GitHub Actions dependencies are updated to their latest releases. Quarto stays at 1.10.19, the latest stable release.

Fixed

  • Project access is separate from repository access in the pair path.
  • The example backlog shows the priority of each sub-issue.
  • The Project export is a TSV file, and it sits in the view tab menu.
  • The extension rule of RSL Art. 56 includes further extensions by the Collegium Decanale.

Removed

  • R stack, dev container, template showcase site, and unused scaffolds of the template.
