Discussion Notes

1) News 

  • Suggestions on how to improve mtg attendance
    • Add next 3 mtg dates to each mtg agenda - send out note every 6 months with a notice for the next 6 months. (VAL)
    • Generate some discussion on topics in advance of mtg - so anyone who can't attend they can look at JIRA, select an issue and send their thoughts/feedback via the DCAT mailing list. The rest of DCAT can discuss issue during mtg. In this way those who can't attend can still make some contribution. (VAL) 
  • Check out the very new/different JSPUI for 4.0: http://demo.dspace.org/jspui/   
  • OR14 call for papers out just this morning: http://duraspace.org/call-2014-international-open-repositories-conference-or2014-june-9-13-helsinki

  • Conference at the University of Athens - Elin will get link 
  • SPARC Open Access mtg - March 2-3, DSpace user group mtg - Val & Bram to connect

2) JIRA review

Unable to locate Jira server for this macro. It may be due to Application Link configuration. Document delivery form - for metadata only items.

DCAT views it as a non-standard use case. Better way would be to add document and put embargo on it and then add the new "Request Copy" feature. Bram to summarize DCAT comments and put in JIRA.

Unable to locate Jira server for this macro. It may be due to Application Link configuration. Integrate DSpace with Drupal 7

This is really an external development project. May be able to make some progress on an integration using new REST API in 4.0 and SWORD. Needs are not clear.  Val to summarize DCAT comments and put in JIRA..

Unable to locate Jira server for this macro. It may be due to Application Link configuration.  Integration of plagiarism checking services

DCAT would like to see a plagiarism check done by an existing service, but not as an integration into the submission process. Repository managers are not really responsible for this and putting this in the submission workflow would bog down the process. DCAT recommends the check be done as a separate process – running all DSpace content through external service (presumably REST API and SWORD could help with hooks). Bram to summarize DCAT comments and put in JIRA.

 

3) Metadata project update

Bram met at Sarah P discussed at DLF last week. Have an idea of how to start on some work, will discuss further with team and summarize for DCAT.
