Scope & Objectives

The goal of this technical working group is to design and implement DSpace 7 Configurable Entities, per the statement from the DSpace Steering Group regarding the DSpace 7 data model and proposal #3 of the DSpace Entities Working Group summary document.

This working group is expected to complete and/or scope the effort within the DSpace 7 release timeline, which will require close coordination with the DSpace 7 Working Group.

Deliverables

This working group will

  1. Assess the early prototype of Configurable Entities (LINK forthcoming) and its alignment with guidelines/needs. Define an implementation roadmap for DSpace 7 Configurable Entities.
  2. Draft a proposed Entities Roadmap for any post-DSpace 7 tasks (to be reviewed by DSpace Leadership and Steering Groups)
  3. Create/submit initial Pull Request(s) for DSpace 7 Configurable Entities (to be reviewed by DSpace 7 Working Group and DSpace Committers)
  4. Create initial end user & configuration documentation for DSpace 7 Configurable Entities feature (to be reviewed by DSpace 7 Working Group and DSpace Committers)

Once the above deliverables have been completed, this working group will merge with the DSpace 7 Working Group.  At that point, the Configurable Entities feature (and any further enhancements/improvements) will be managed by the combined DSpace 7 Working Group, where it will be stewarded into DSpace 7.
