Hi Keith,

The simple answer is that most of the DSpace XML namespaces are treated more like URIs than URLs. That means they are non-resolvable (and never have been, from the time they were created, which was about 10 years ago for some).

In more recent years, we have been trying to make a conscious effort to include XSDs (XML Schema Definitions) within the DSpace source code itself. But, there are still a few that are known to be missing since the beginning (e.g. the DSpace Intermediate Metadata or DIM schema never seems to have ever been created).

We do welcome contributions to DSpace, and I'd love to see us correct existing XSDs or recreate any XSDs that are missing. So, if there are particular schemas you are looking for, it may be worth opening up a ticket in our JIRA issue tracker (https://jira.duraspace.org/projects/DS/issues), so that we can work to find a volunteer developer to recreate or update the schema. If you (or anyone else on this list) have any interest in helping recreate these, we also welcome code contributions: https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/Code+Contribution+Guidelines

Hi All,

I was trying to access the Dspace XML namespaces at the following links:

http://www.dspace.org/xmlns/dspace and http://www.dspace.org/xmlns/dspace/dlm <http://www.dspace.org/xmlns/dspace/dlm>,

but both links are not working.

Does anyone know where I can find this information.

Thanks
Keith
