Notes
Tim Donohue provided a DSpace 7 Update:
- Work is progressing although not as rapidly as would be ideal due to being under-resourced. Major work is being done by RSPatmire and 4science for which we are extremely grateful. There is quite alot of backend functionality underway that will enaure a better REST API that will operate better w the Angular api.
- By the end of 2017/beginning of 2018 there will be more UI mock-ups to review including search enhancements and submission.
- Authenticatuion and authorization is next up after submission and search
- Tim suggests that this group continue to capture UIs that are inspiring especially for search, submission, Authentication, and authorization: UI examples of inspirational design and functionality.
- The new DSpace entities group isooking at how DSpace might handle people, authors, and institutions beginning with with DSpace cris models
- Mariya interested in entities
- Jose working with DSpace 5 and entities pilot including a new metadata profile for OpenAir with entities by end of year—this is a local pilot for DSpace 7–will share with community by end of year
- Past review of use cases on wiki: Use Cases
- Did developers use connents/updates?
- Yes, but often they are more forward looking—can’t creep DSpace 7 scope, but very useful in planning the future-looking DSpace 7 roadmap
- Continuing to enhance use cases is helpful.
