What follows is an outline of the next steps in developing a vision and ultimately a technology roadmap for DSpace software. Please keep in mind that many of these steps may involve differing and sometimes overlapping groups (e.g. initial planning and use case gathering may involve DCAT or Vision Team members, while technical implementation discussions/decisions will highly involve Committers). |
- Develop a high level "Vision" for DSpace software. Done(ACTION: DSpace Vision Team)
- Survey the DSpace Community around the perceived "use cases/features" which may achieve that Vision. Done(ACTION: DSpace Vision Team)
- Summarize & analyze Vision Survey results (e.g. what does our community find most important?). (ACTION: DSpace Vision Team or subset)
- based on Vision survey resultsACTION: Small group. Requires approval/feedback from all groups) Develop a high level "DSpace Technology Plan" which brings together the Vision with perceived core use cases and feature sets (
- Investigate implementation options based on finalized core use cases and feature sets (while keeping in mind extendability for non-core use cases), (ACTION: Small group of Committers / Tech savvy folks. Approval/feedback from all groups)
- (ACTION: Small group of Committers / Tech savvy folks. Approval/feedback from all groups.) Develop an Implementation Roadmap to achieve our Technology Plan & Vision
