    • Provide Intranet users a preconfigured list of plugins to download and install into Koha
      • To allow library administrators to only install plugins they actually want
  • OAI-PMH
    • Add import API to core Koha code
    • Create Koha plugin to use high performance interactive OAI-PMH harvester
  • Pluggable authentication system
    • OpenID Connect auth Koha plugin
      • Much of this work already exists but needs upstreaming
  • RabbitMQ-based task scheduler / FIFO job queue
    • Usable by Koha plugins
  • APIs
    • Provide Koha search results via API
  • Discovery interfaces
  • Better database migration system
    • Possibly use DBIC for deploying and upgrading schema
