Re: [Dspace-tech] Persistent identifiers in DSpace -- thoughts please

The point of my email wasn't to find out which persistent identifier mechanism DSpace should use by default, it was to gather opinion on how we can make DSpace less dependent on one mechanism in a way that isn't limiting. cheers, Jim -- James Rutherford | Hewlett-Packard Limited registered Office: Research Engineer | Cain Road, HP Labs | Bracknell, Bristol, UK | Berks +44 117 312 7066 | RG12 1HN.

Re: [Dspace-tech] How to configure port number for DSpace
Hi kyle and Richard, Thanks for your efforts so far to help me out. Regarding that SMTP port number configuration, I feel it would sound better if you provide some option in the Dspace.cfg file itself to configure the port, instead of making changes in the source code. ie as you know in dspace.cfg file there are options to set the mail server, mail server username and password. Similary if you provide an option for configuring the port number in the dspace.cfg file, it will be good for any user.

Re: [Dspace-tech] RE : HTTPS login
Thanks, Its an interesting proposal, however, this is very much a configuration decision made by the system administrator of the system that DSpace is running on and I don't think it possible to add-on to dspace 1.5. Generally speaking, configuring https is done either at the Apache level (if using mod_jk) or at the tomcat server configuration level, the DSpace UI is a webapplication installed in a servlet container and as such the individual installing it may not be a system administrator. Controlling what portions of the site are protected and which are not is done at that higher level. Not only do we not have any current build time configuration of such services, but they are very diverse and it is difficult to predict let alone code for such configurations across OS and variants of servlet containers. I think the best we can do is to enhance the documentation so that there are examples of such configuration on various platforms. To answer your question concerning how to control access to tomcat over https, look into using mod_rewrite in your Apache configuration to map specific paths to be forward to https and others to http.

[Dspace-tech] Large images, and lots of them
Hello, We've been using DSpace for a small pilot project, and we're currently looking into using it for more robust uses for our organization overall. I was wondering, are there any users out there who have used DSpace as the store for large images (15MB per) and a LOT of them? A lot being many tens of thousands? What have you experiences been like? Thanks! Nikhil -- ... .. . ... .. . . .. . . . . Nikhil Trivedi . Senior Systems Analyst . The Art Institute of Chicago . http://www.artic.edu/ .

Re: [Dspace-tech] sorting search results
Richard: The work you have done here is very impressive, and I'm wondering if it's going to become part of a future release of DSpace. This functionality would be nice to have, but one we don't necessary must have, and I'm a bit scared to apply your patch and then not be able to update to future releases of DSpace. If it's going to be incorporated into the DSpace code, I think it might be best for me to wait for its release then. Any ideas about this? Many thanks!

[Dspace-tech] editing the Wiki
To the DSpace Community, Many of you have had issues editing the DSpace wiki over the last several weeks unless you were promoted to cadet status. I am happy to say, thanks to the hard work of Alex Brennan, the problem has been fixed for now. Over the past several months the wiki needed to be locked down due to spam issues. We have now installed a captcha pass- so for a new user, during registration, they must type in the funny looking letters into a box to verify it is a real person. Once registered the person has full edit capability. For those of you who are already registered- your full editing capability has been restored on the public pages. If you had cadet status- your system capabilities remain the same. If you are still having issues or have questions on being able to edit the site please send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.

[Dspace-tech] Dublin Core metadata: creator and contributor.author
Greetings, We are just starting to work with DSpace, so our understanding is very basic right now. I notice the input form writes author data to dc.contributor.author. I have read some of the history about this choice for DSpace (changing recommendations, issues determining who is the author, etc.). Questions: 1. If our IR is just starting up, would it be a good idea to alter input-forms.xml to send author data to dc.creator and maybe set up another input field for dc.contributors? 2. Would this be the start of a lot of java-level (vs. javascript-level) changes, such as the data view screens like browse author and the initial view of the record display? 3. Would such a change cause problems with metadata harvesters such as OAISTER (OAISTER seems to work fine mapping from dc.contributor.author right now)? 4. Does Manakin address question #2 by making it easy to select dc.creator for browse data views?
