Hello all,
In the weeks leading up to Open Repositories 2016 (and beyond), we will
be posting regular, brief video updates of the work being done by the
DSpace New User Interface (UI) Initiative team. We hope this will allow
everyone to keep track of our progress, send feedback or even contribute
to the initiative. Currently, our team consists of volunteers from Texas
A&M, @mire, Cineca and DuraSpace. But we welcome others to join or
contribute.
To kick off these updates, I've posted the first three short (5-10min)
video updates:
* How we got here: Review of the steps that led to this initiative,
beginning with the UI Prototype Challenge in late 2015. This
includes an overview of the later decision to perform an extended
prototype on Angular 2: https://youtu.be/Pl2lkC5uwfs
o More info on prototype challenge and timelines since then:
https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/DSpace+UI+Prototype+Challenge
* Angular 2 UI Prototype Demo of Phase 1 tasks/goals:
https://youtu.be/bvSJC2lj0OM
o Phase 1 consisted of validating that we could build a basic
DSpace read-only browse experience in the Angular 2 Javascript
framework (https://angular.io/), and still have it be easily
indexed by Google Scholar.
* Angular 2 UI Prototype Demo, May 16 updates:

o Phase 2 began in May, and its primary goal is to build a more
DSpace-like, enhanced prototype to show off at the OR2016
conference in June.
(NOTE: If the video initially appears blurry, use the video player
quality settings to switch to 720p HD video playback)
Much more information on the Angular 2 UI Prototype can be found in its
README at: https://github.com/DSpace-Labs/angular2-ui-prototype You can
even take it for a test run locally, chip in, or follow along on the
code progress via our Waffle board
(https://waffle.io/DSpace-Labs/angular2-ui-prototype).
We'll keep posting these videos regularly to our lists as we lead up to
OR2016. Feel free to let us know if there are topics you'd like to hear
more about, or have feedback or questions. Just respond to this thread,
and we'll do our best to answer them. These videos are also all listed
in a public playlist at

Thanks,
