Integration Checklist
Steps that Dryad must complete for a journal to be integrated:

Discussion phase (from initial contact --> journal decision to integrate)


 * 1) initial documentation
 * 2) *send basic info (wiki documentation, Integration Overview slides)
 * 3) *alert mgt and tech
 * 4) *add journal to Salesforce and Trello (formerly Partner spreadsheet)
 * 5) *determine strategy; what issues are there, who can approve moving ahead etc.
 * 6) *arrange conference call, ask them to look at/fill out PIQ, to walk through integration implementation steps and answer questions
 * 7) get-to-know-you phone conversation
 * 8) *answer questions from journal about workflows, optional customizations, etc.
 * 9) *get journal timeline for testing and rollout
 * 10) *obtain/confirm PIQ

Implementation phase (from PIQ --> successful completed test)


 * 1) make sure we have completed PIQ
 * 2) configure dev system for test messages
 * 3) set up basic configuration based on PIQ
 * 4) *Implement any specialized processing needed by the journal
 * 5) *send a test email with journal code and check to see it is populated in dev. If yes, proceed.
 * 6) *Notify liaison/Journal that we’re ready to begin testing and point them to http://wiki.datadryad.org/Journal_Metadata
 * 7) *make sure we have journal cover image
 * 8) complete testing phase
 * 9) *documentation & troubleshooting during testing, journal configuration
 * 10) *oversee test of metadata messages, feedback to journal, until all problems are resolved
 * 11) turn on/finalize integration
 * 12) *Move the initial configuration (and specialized processing) to production (or turn it on)
 * 13) *Add journal to "look up your journal" list on website (this and the above should happen in the same pull request; ideally include the below as well, but can delay slightly)
 * 14) *ensure cover image is added to Dryad, both on the data package pages and in the "recently integrated" box on the homepage
 * 15) notify curation team / staff listserv
 * 16) add journal to wiki list of completed journals (above)

Completion phase (after completed test --> rollout and ongoing maintenance)


 * 1) Concluding email with journal contact

 * 3) *check on policy for data references & updated journal instructions (http://wiki.datadryad.org/Journal_instructions )
 * 4) *tell journal about weekly curator reports; confirm recipients and add to Trello any updates since the PIQ was completed
 * 5) *ask journal to inform us of any forthcoming changes to their manuscript system that will affect integration
 * 6) *invite journal representative to subscribe to the Announce and/or Users mailing lists
