March DuraSpace Summit breakout topics

Group

Looking for general and breakout topics for the summit. Three, 45 minute discussion topics on the second day in the past. May do this on both days this time. Also plenary session topic suggestions welcome.

 

  • Discussions of the possibility of having DSpace exposing it’s own REST API to service the Fedora specification.
    • Fedora having a RESTful interface and DSpace implementing this API to use the Fedora Repo part.
    • This topic has come up multiple times and the community has previous not been ready for this beyond experimental phase. They could never gain traction for whatever reason.
    • Ultimately, may be worth time to get people together and feel out the DSpace community and who among the stakeholders is interested in this type of discussion and if it is worth a more formal discussion at OR.
  • Looking to get a discussion around Sufia, HyBox, DSpace, Fedora and how they relate. Largely this is around what is a good out of the box session and how they fit what roles

 

  • Hosted services
    • Maurice and Shield project
  • Use cases, actors for art museums
    • mixes nicely with cultural heritage discussions
  • Market expansion - other verticals and territories
    • Maybe plenary on European market penetration since DSpace has done well here (Vivo too)
  • Large organizations?
  • Vivo/Fedora Integration (maybe DSpace too?)
    • cross pollination benefits are high
  • Lyrasis merger discussion and how it impacts Fedora
  • Roadmap beyond 3.5 and support
  • Email in other ideas

  1. I'm out sick today, so won't be on the call.

  2. I resolved my action item above – I believe that the performance issues have been thoroughly discussed and some of them (which pertained to Hydra) have been resolved. I am not aware that any of the performance problems are actual bugs in Fedora.
