Hello, I have read the contributions of all the participants and it has been very valuable, thank you. I have seen many of my thoughts reflected. I just want to restate something that Deborah mentioned. Many of us who use DSpace are or aspire to be harvested or to harvest as the case may be. In this sense, it may be important to take into account the OAI-PMH protocol. If you have the knowledge and dedication to carry out the mappings that Deborah refers to, such a situation can be resolved, otherwise, in my opinion, it would not be too advisable to deviate from dc, at least from the basic core, to guarantee a semi-direct passage.
