=== Documentation ===

  * Documentation Interest Group (DIG) met on Sept. 5 
    * Defined many terms to run through Vale (https://vale.sh/) for documentation consistency checks
    * Discussed last Vale spreadsheet and getting as many of those fixed by October's meeting as possible
    * October's meeting with focus on 3.14 documentation needs
    * Question (went to listserv, too): This bug: https://docs.evergreen-ils.org/docs/latest/opac/visibility_on_the_web.html is orphaned in the docs. Is it still a valid page? Is the part about SKOS Support that says “This is an experimental, "under-the-hood" feature that will be built upon in subsequent releases.” correct? Is it still an experimental feature?
  * Next DIG meeting is October 3.
