At Samvera Connect 2019 there was a small number of presentations about ongoing work on Wings - "a Valkyrie adapter with data compatibility with Active Fedora" as part of the technology stack under the Hyrax gem. There were references to "Hyrax on Wings" and, almost inevitably, two related hex sticker designs emerged.

Triangular sticker and hex sticker for Samvera's 'Valkyrie' gem based on an illustration from the 1910 edition of 'The Rhinegold & the Valkyrie' by Richard Wagner, illustrated by Arthur Rackham. The work is available as an e-book under Project Gutenberg as a work on which US copyright has expired.
Samvera's annual Connect conference was held on-line because of the COVID-19 pandemic. A design had been created in anticipation of t-shirts at a face-to-face conference but it was used, instead, as the conference logo. 'Souvenirs' bearing the design were available via an on-line shop.
Samvera circulated a "Season's Greetings" card for the first time in December 2020. It features the Samvera tree festooned with decorative lights and incorporates in the winter scene the logos for Samvera's major software items.

Using Git and GitHub for managing metadata (no new data models, we promise)This session is proposed as a two-part workshop, A workshop given at Samvera Connect 2017 described thus, and The first will cover a modified version of the ‘Version Control with Git’ Software Carpentry lesson, tailored for a non-developer audience, with more focus on metadata. This is typically taught as a half-day (3 hour) workshop.The second part will focus on the use of Git and GitHub in the context of the metadata workflow. We will present examples and strategies, taken from recent work by UC Santa Barbara and UC San Diego, of version control, pull requests, and automated hooks and integrations as they relate to moving metadata through a workflow and into our repositories. In addition to these demonstrations, we hope to spend a good percentage of the time available in discussion with other interested institutions and how we might leverage our collective experience to make getting our metadata into our repositories easier, more consistent, and maybe even more fun!

How to Write Module-Based JavaScript with RequireJS and the AMD (Asynchronous Module Definition) PatternTired of worrying about load order for your script includes? Tired of polluting the global namespace? Want to write more re-usable JavaScript code with discrete modules? Maybe RequireJS / the AMD pattern is right for you! This presentation will go through the construction of a simple RequireJS-based JavaScript app with a few modules. and A workshop given at Samvera Connect 2017 described thus
Fedora is the flexible, extensible, open source repository platform that commonly underlies Samvera implementations. Fedora provides a number of core services that Samvera already uses, such as CRUD operations, versioning, and fixity, and several new, potentially useful extended services have been introduced within the last year. The API Extension Framework provides a means of binding services to repository objects in order to extend the functionality of Fedora, while the Import/Export Utility makes it easier to get content into and out of Fedora in standardized formats and packages. This workshop will introduce both of these new services and discuss how they might be used in the context of Samvera. Participants will also have an opportunity to try them out via hands-on exercises in combination with a virtual machine. and A workshop given at Samvera Connect 2017 described thus
