Thanks a bunch Peter. I took a look at the Wind Music site and that’s similar
to what we have in mind.

Subject: Re: [Dspace-tech] DSpace suggestions?
Hi Susan,
I've seen a demo of the Wind Music site, which has implemented the feature you
are talking about.
An example entry would be:
http://www.windmusic.org/dspace/handle/68502/97349?45735available
I believe the person who developed these features was Christophe Dupriez.
---
As far as the idea of having an easy feedback system for suggesting
improvements to DSpace... I'm not sure how best to tackle that one. We have the
user-voice portal on demo.dspace.org<http://demo.dspace.org>, so that people
can report bugs, and other feedback of the demo site. That gets some use, but
not a wide source of feedback, and I'm not sure we're wanting to use it for
that. Jira tickets sometimes work, but they will often get dismissed if its
just a feature request with no implementer and no patches. I'm not sure how
much activity there is on the DSpace facebook page, or Google+ circle for
DSpace. In any case, the mailing list more or less works fine for this. Bram
had an idea for "tagging" mailing list posts with things like feature request,
statistics, xmlui, DSpace 1.7, so there could be a knowledge base for finding
what other people have submitted, but that would take work to build as well.
However, there "could" be a way for people to pool effort to work on common
needs. For instance, at Ohio State, I'm working on a usage statistics project
with team members here. I could be more vocal and chatty with other developers
to say, I need a better way to detect and remove robots. Another group, such as
@mire, might say, we've got a good way to present statistical data and make
reports. Another group has figured out how to search in SOLR for having a
wildcard at the start of a query. Another group is saying we need to anonymize
our statistical logs, since its against the law in their country to store
visitors IP addresses.
