Jim Ottaviani commented on DS-587: ---------------------------------- Thanks Tim. You summed it up well -- at least for me -- with your two options, and I think what you propose is exactly right. I also think I misunderstood your and bollini's concerns, which is why I went on so long about why we proposed (and do) what we did. I clearly misunderstood the 404 issue, about which I now agree 100%: that's the status code a withdrawn item should return. Definitely not 200... I'm definitely not smart enough to comment on Mark's suggestion in any detail. I don't see the problem with having it in the UI, but that's where I live every day, and am used to seeing. That said, withdrawing an item is (or at least should be) an infrequent enough occurrence, and exposing metadata is not likely to be collection-specific enough to require different policies, that if I understand his suggestion then I agree that predefining this system-wide (here at Michigan we'd default to Anonymous, obviously) should be fine in almost all cases. We may be able to take a shot at modifying our patch to do these things, but have to look at how much of Jose's time I can get in the near future. He may contact you about this as well to learn more about what we can do. Thanks again. > add the capability to indicate a withdraw reason to an item ( tombstone ) > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: DS-587 > URL: http://jira.dspace.org/jira/browse/DS-587 > Project: DSpace 1.x > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: JSPUI > Affects Versions: 1.6.0 > Environment: This is a change to the base functionality of the jspui. > Reporter: Jose Blanco > Priority: Minor > Attachments: confirm-withdraw-item.jsp, embargo.jsp, tombstone.jsp > > Original Estimate: 0 minutes > Remaining Estimate: 0 minutes > > I have already made the changes to our instance of dspace.
