Why is a "vanilla" site the benchmark, when hardly anyone is content with that? A realistic cost/time estimate needs to include design and customization work. Dorothea Hi Dorothea, I get many requests from organizations evaluating DSpace wanting to know the level of effort to install right out of the box, without making any customizations. It is not a BENCHMARK but a BASELINE. If you would like to help us identify all the useful and important customizations and the level of effort required I welcome your input. The Foundation is just in the stages of getting a team together so we can put process and support in to represent the total needs of the community to be successful running DSpace. However, we need the help of the community to do this . Given your experience, passion and know how it would be great if you could work with us in a positive fashion.
