All, Just an FYI -- the AIP Backup/Restore work is now available on Trunk (as of r5265)!
A few important things to be aware of: (1) This code changes the PackageIngester and PackageDisseminator interfaces. *Any custom, local Packagers using those interfaces will need refactoring.* (All out-of-the-box DSpace Packagers have already been refactored to support these interfaces) (2) Because of changes in #1, the SWORD API needed some refactoring. This code has been tested (by myself) and seems to function properly. However, it always helps to have others test it as well. (3) Because of changes in #1, the LNI API also needed minor refactoring. UNFORTUNATELY, THIS HAS NOT BEEN WELL TESTED! ANY VOLUNTEERS? Claim this task in JIRA please: http://jira.dspace.org/jira/browse/DS-647 (I'm having difficulty getting the 1.6.2 LNI to work properly with the various WebDAV clients I've tried -- so, I haven't been able to ensure my modifications work perfectly. Help appreciated!) The Documentation for how to use this new AIP feature is here: https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/AipBackupRestorePrototype The Development team (myself, Richard Rodgers, Mark Wood & Bill Hays) are still working on even more improvements -- so expect more features & improvements as we move closer to 1.7. Latest status is noted at the bottom of the above wiki page. Questions/concerns?
