  • Rewrite of Creative Commons licensing (MIT - ready to go) – would improve upon the features of the current CC licensing submission step
    • Currently only against XMLUI from MIT
    • Legacy problem – do we update old license to new or not? Currently MIT runs 'split version' with old licenses looking like old, and new look like new.
  • Google Scholar work (MIT - ready to go) – better metadata for Google Scholar (citation tags in header).
  • CGIProposal (Richard Rodgers/MIT – Interface & XML serialization implementation should be ready), based on the Item type based submission patch picked up by Robin Taylor (initially a GSoC project) – would allow for type-based submission processes (e.g. Theses/Dissertations could have different submission steps than articles/papers).
    • Context Guided Ingest – define an interface, where any submission code can write "attributes" and can retrieve those again later on. Can add any new attributes/values that you want for your submission code. Could be serialized to XML (using input-forms.xml) OR have an implementation of that service that stores in DB (recommended). JPA2?
      • seems similar to SimpleStorage Service (user centered storage of state info) – Mark Diggory.
  • CurationTaskProposal (Richard Rodgers/MIT) – would allow for a more standard way to integrate curation tools (e.g. virus scanning, format identification, etc) into DSpace
  • AipBackupRestorePrototype (Tim Donohue/DuraSpace) – would allow for a more complete backup of DSpace into METS-based Archival Information Packages (AIPs). These AIPs could also be used to migrate DSpace content (Communities/Collections/Items) from one system to another.
  • SWORD Client for DSpace? (Robin Taylor) – would allow DSpace to push/submit content to other SWORD enabled repositories
  • Possibly one or more of the Google Summer of Code 2010 projects (if they are ready/stable enough for release)
