The new-style packager (with plug-ins) only appears to be able to operate on one Item at a time. The above could probably be fixed for 1.4.2, with the potential exception of the checksum checker which needs to be changed to use the correct APIs. I think these are a bit late for 1.4.2.

[Dspace-tech] (no subject)
Hi! (1) Will the write policy allow a user to edit his item submissions in DSpace. (2) Can a single user be given privilege to create sub-communities apart from Administrators (3) Can a user submit articles to several collections or communities at a time?

Re: [Dspace-tech] granularity of authentication for undergrad theses
As I understand it, authorization is item specific. Now, if you set up a collection and you give say read permissions to bitstreams to a certain group of epeople, then when items are submitted to the collection, the items will inherit these permissions, and if you change the permissions on the collection, the items in the collection retain the permissions they had, but any items deposited from then on will inherit the permissions new permissions. The out of the box DSpace does not allow you to setup permissions based on IP, but there is a patch that can help with this ( I think ). What the patch basically does is determine the ip address of the item and then based on this makes the user a member of a group that you need to have setup to have permissions for the items. This membership is carried on the context and expires when the user ends the session. -Jose -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Eric Luhrs Sent: Friday, April 20, 2007 11:08 AM To: DSpace-tech@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [Dspace-tech] granularity of authentication for undergrad theses Hello all, Lafayette College is in the planning stages for a DSpace repository.

Re: [Dspace-tech] Adding items without bitstreams
Hi Robert, We're testing the possibility of using the DSpace simple archive format and item importer to create a DSpace record without a corresponding item. Here's what we're doing: 1. Create the records in the dublin_core.xml format as described in the Item Importer and Exporter/DSpace simple archive format section of the DSpace documentation. 2. Assemble all the dublin_core.xml files into the DSpace simple archive format (described in the same section of the documentation), but leave out the contents and file portions. So, it might look like this: archive_directory/ item_000/ dublin_core.xml item_001/ dublin_core.xml item_002/ dublin_core.xml etc. 3. Run the item importer. We've completed only step 1, so I'm not sure this works. I'll send a more complete description once we're further along.

We've got a couple patches to the LNI stuff from John Fawcett of CARET which allow one to create collections/communities via LNI and Update/Delete Items. I don't see why the PAckager framework couldn't also be tailored to allow creating items without files. I don't see why the Submission UI in Manakin or JSPUI couldn't be made more flexible in this regard, I'd also add that with Configurable Submission, this should be a bit of a no-brainer. -Mark On Apr 20, 2007, at 12:00 PM, Martin Courtois wrote: Hi Robert, We're testing the possibility of using the DSpace simple archive format and item importer to create a DSpace record without a corresponding item.

Re: [Dspace-tech] DSpace a memory hog?
Cory, Comments below: On 04/18/2007 01:54 PM, Cory Snavely wrote: Well, as I said at first, it all depends on your definition of what a memory hog is. Today's hog fits in tomorrow's pocket. We better all already be used to that. Thank you for proving my point on memory bloat pervasiveness in the IT industry. This type of thinking allows vendors (whether open source or proprietary) to drive up the base systems requirements without greatly improving functionality because it is predestined. Also, I don't think for a *minute* that the original developers of DSpace made a casual choice about their development environment--in fact, I think they made a responsible choice given the alternatives. Let's give our colleagues credit that's due. Their choice permits scaling and fits well for an open-source project. Putting the general problem of memory bloat in their laps seems pretty angsty to me. Lastly, dedicating a server to DSpace is a choice, not a necessity. We as implementors have complete freedom to separate out the database and storage tiers, and mechanisms exist for scaling Tomcat horizontally as well. In the other direction, I suspect people are running DSpace on VMware or xen virtual machines, too. I didn't say they made a casual choice about their development environment. I said the functional requirements of the application didn't justify the memory footprint required to run this application. Whether or not they made a choice that fits well for an open-source project depends on your definition of Open Source. However, I don't think that debate is relevant to this discussion. As far as scaling requirements, it depends on where you want scalability. As you pointed out, there is a natural ability with web applications to scale them vertically through hardware or Tomcat's, now native, horizontal approach. Since either approach needs hardware, the memory footprint of an application needs to be taken into account. The higher the base system requirements, the likelihood of someone having a scalable system is lowered due to total cost of ownership (TCO). While virtual machine technology can help lower some TCO issues, it brings in a whole new batch of problems which are out of scope for this discussion. The general problem of memory bloat rests in all developers laps (mine included). As an industry, we need to constantly weigh our use of memory against the functionality we are providing. The functionality provided by Dspace isn't rocket science, and shouldn't require memory footprints greater than most of systems that get people into space. -- Brad TealeWeb Application Developer Digital Library Development Lab University of Minnesota Libraries [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Wed, 2007-04-18 at 13:40 -0500, Brad Teale wrote: Pan, Dspace is a memory hog considering the functionality the application provides.

Re: [Dspace-tech] Config Submission notes
Another heads up to what Mark has said: It's worth noting there are TWO Configurable Submission patches currently available from SourceForge: 1) Configurable Submission Patch, v. 2.0: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detailaid=1532695group_id=19984atid=319984 2) Configurable Submission - JSP UI Manakin (i.e. v. 3.0): http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detailaid=1691345group_id=19984atid=319984 The former (#1) is a stable patch for DSpace 1.4 The latter (#2) is an alpha release of the patch that will be going into DSpace 1.5 So, if you want to use the Configurable Submission right now, #1 is the best choice (and rightly linked by Dorothea). This is also the patch which is described in detail on the Wiki: http://wiki.dspace.org/ConfigurableSubmissionSystem However, #2 includes some subtle changes that needed to be made to make it work properly with Manakin as well as with the JSP user interface. So, technically #1 is completely stable in DSpace 1.4, but will become obsolete as soon as DSpace 1.5 is released. (However for those using the stable 1.4 version now, I should be able to provide some migration suggestions, especially if you decide to create your own custom steps, etc) I apologize for any confusion this causes, but this is unfortunately what is necessary to bring the Configurable Submission into line with the upcoming DSpace 1.5 release. As always, feel free to contact me for more details, or if you have questions regarding the Configurable Submission. - Tim Mark Diggory wrote: Just a heads up, Tim's Configurable Submission patch becomes the default Submission UI in Manakin in 1.5, so adopting it early should be a fine solution.

Any particular problems with hitting the database in this way? Any recommendations for the best filesystem to use for storing the bitstreams in order to optimize performance?
