Run post-install chmods only once 

See PR #47

• Action on Peter to checkout, test, and merge
• look at PR #59 afterwards

Other issues/PRs

• reminder to Zsofia about open issues and PR
• #52 assigned to Zsofia and Omar – since by addressing #18 this might hopefully be solved in passing
• Just a note: The MerMEId DockerHub is setup to build PRs and branches automatically

AOB

• Margrethe (and the IT department at the National Library of Norway) installed the MerMEId (demo). Issues they face include:
  • how to keep a revision history
  • how to collaboratively work with different users
  • how to provide a published version
• Regarding different users: those must be added to the eXistb through some (MerMEId external) interface. But be warned about some flaws in the current eXistdb dashboard (Omar)
• Regarding the revision history: MerMEId had (and should still have) the feature to write change and user information into the MEI <revisionDesc>. Since nothing was altered in this area of the code, it should still work out of the box.
• David will update the README of the DeliusCatalogueOfWorks with installation and migration info
