Hello,
     We have a Docushare instance in which we store open, active projects.  
Once the projects are complete, we export the files/documents from Docushare to 
DSpace for archival (we are currently running the JSPUI version of DSpace 1.7.1 
on a Sun Solaris server with PostgreSQL).

     For some time now, we've had a very piecemeal process that accomplishes 
this and we would like to automate it.  Of course, the objective is to create 
the directory structure that DSpace needs in order to import content into 
specified collections.  I'd like to hear from anyone who's done this or 
something like it and what your ultimate solution was.  Has anyone used SWORD 
for this and, if so, what kind of development effort was required?  Any other 
solutions we might be able to implement in a fairly short period of time?  I 
hesitate to just write an interface between Docushare and DSpace when it's 
entirely possible that we might want to migrate content from another source 
(not just Docushare) in the future.  We also periodically receive new 
collections to import in the form of a disk of documents and a spreadsheet of 
metadata where we use a similar, somewhat piecemeal process to match documents 
to metadata and convert to the required DSpace import directory structure.

     Any helpful suggestions/solutions would be appreciated!

Thanks and Best regards,
Sue
