Hi All, We use DSpace batch import a lot and sometimes have to replace the items to fix the metadata or content issues. However, we found the replacement in itemimport is actually deleting the old item, adding a new one and then having the old handles back to the item. It generates several problems. First, it will delete all relationships, for example, if the item is mapped to another collection, the mapping will be gone after replacement. Also, when deleting the item, the item's internal ID changed and it losts its connection with statistical history. Some of our statistics will show replaced items internal ID number since the ID changed and it can't match the item title.
The DSpace 3.0 is releasing next month and we would like to know if it is possible to have the problem fixed in the new release. Thanks, Ying @ Rice University ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Everyone hates slow websites. So do we.
