Hi Jay,

·We are interested in changing the workflow to add a few more Initial Questions. How would one add two or three more Initial Questions to the submission workflow?

*
*Have a look at the input-forms.xml and item-submission.xml - here you can edit what questions are asked when a user is submitting an item. I think these XML config files would also be key to creating your "submit a new translation" button.


·We plan to use Choice Control extensively throughout the metadata entry process. We've managed to setup some sample Choice Controlled fields, but find that the way to setup these files is cumbersome. Is there a way in the XMLUI to edit the many Choice Control lists we may have?

How are you currently setting these up?

Thanks,
Mark

Hello,

I asked this question for the discussion of workflows in DSpace on the dspace-general list and want to ask over here on the tech list as well. I have several questions as I am new to DSpace.

My colleagues and I are investigating DSpace as a solution to a large repository of digital resources to be made available for translation. Translated resources will then be re-submitted to the Library with metadata that indicates the translation relationship. There are future plans for the repository to be served in multiple user interface languages. We are using DSpace 1.7 with the XMLUI and a customized theme based on Mirage.

Here are some things we are interested in doing. We think they are theoretically possible, but would like to find some real-world examples of how to do them.

·We would like to derive a new Item from an existing item. Ideally this would be implemented with a "Submit a New Translation" button on an existing DSpace Item. In the process, we want to copy some of the source Item's metadata into the new derived Item (dc.relation information) and display some of the source Item's metadata adjacent to the metadata entry fields so a submitter can see the source's title and translate it appropriately into the language of the new Item. How might this be accomplished?

We do have more questions, but these may be the most important at the moment.

Sincerely,
