Hi Michael, I ignore if it is useful for you, but we have ready the 3.1 version for XMLUI, Jira DS-1585. We expect to push to the git system ending this week.... The jira Issue DS 1585 is the "translation" to XMLUI of the request copy add-on of the University of Minho (for JSPUI) . It is related to DS-830 <https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-830> and also has some of the functionality described in DS-824 <https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-824>.
Regards

Emilio Lorenzo

Hi,

I'm in the process of implementing a DSpace v3.1 DEV system with a view to 
migrating our live service from v1.6.2 once all our local customisations etc 
are complete in v3.1.

The next task on my list is to re-implement the "Request a copy" add-on 
(https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/RequestCopy) which we've been using 
successfully in our live system since its earliest days.

When we moved to v1.6.2 there wasn't a version of the add-on available for that version 
of DSpace, so I just "mucked about" with the original version of the add-on 
until I got it working in v1.6.2.

Now I'm moving to v3.1 I note that on the Wiki page for the Addon it says:

Available soon for DSpace 3.

- so first question is, is anyone actively working on this, and, if so, is 
there an ETA for it (days, weeks, months)? If there is work on-going, it goes 
without saying that I'd be happy to help if I can (although I probably know 
just about enough to be dangerous ;-) )

If it is not on the immediate horizon, I'm happy to have a go at getting one of the earlier 
versions working in v3 - my first thought is just to try and get "my" current version of 
the add-on (originally for DSpace v1.3, then reworked locally for v1.6.2) working in v3.1 as it 
includes a number of minor tweaks to the original behaviour, but perhaps I should be "starting 
from scratch" with v3 of the Addon (intended for DSpace v1.8.2) . . . . (?)

Does anyone have any experience implementing this Addon in DSpace v3(.1)? If 
so, did you migrate from an existing implementation or start from scratch with 
the latest version of the add-on?

Anyone know of any good reason not to simply re-implement the version I have 
working in v1.6.2 in v3.1 (e.g. it won't work because of database change X that 
came in v1.7/8; the latest version is much better because it includes feature 
X, etc) . . .

Just thought I'd ask before heading down a road that might take me nowhere, 
especially if others have already blazed a trail elsewhere that I can follow :-)

Cheers,

Mike
