[Dspace-tech] Questions about themes and lay-out in DSpace 1.5.2 - xmlui

2009-05-14 Thread Marc Goovaerts
Hello,

I have three questions:
1. I want to adapt the home page, using one theme for it and another for all
other views and pages. Can I make a specific theme for home page or do I
have to define a theme for regex=* and then define all the other options
with a separate theme for each option? 

2. I try to change the font size of the headers in the home page. I see in
the source page that h1 is somewhere defined with font-size of 259% or 242%
but I cannot find where it is defined that way. I tried to change div-head
in the style sheet without any result. How can this size be adapted.

3. When upgrading from DSpace 1.4.2 to 1.5.2 XMLUI everything went rather
smoothly. But in the description of communities an collections I used html
tags. These tags are now visible. The logo is not visible. Html does not to
get well formatted. How can I solve this? I like to add links to urls and
emai in these pages.

Re: [Dspace-tech] Internal System Error by ingest a new item in demo collection

2009-05-14 Thread Claudia Jürgen
Hello Robin,

during ingest your dspace instance will try to send email, so you got to 
provide valid email settings in the dspace.cfg.
If your instance isn't able to send emails you will get an internal 
error on granting the license, because at that point either the 
submitter or the workflow members will be notified.


As you get the error at an earlier stage, check your [dspace] dir 
permissions. The user, under which your servlet container runs, needs to 
write to the upload dirctory and assetstore during ingest.

Hope that helps

Claudia Jürgen

Re: [Dspace-tech] [Dspace-devel] authority control proposal

2009-05-14 Thread Jeffrey Trimble
I wanted to chime in here since Authority Control is near and dear to  
my heart.


What Larry is suggesting makes perfect sense to the end users like  
metadata librarians
and catalog librarians.  The authority record provides several things  
to the users:


1.  Authorized form of the heading.
2.  Search Under references (un-authorized forms)
3.  Search ALSO Under references
4.	Bibliographical data for the referencing of the authorized form of  
the heading

5.  Epitome notes
6.  Tracing practices (for series)
7.	Scope notes for explaining how a heading works to the public   
(especially with

LCSH, MeSH, and ATT headings).


The issues with Controlled Vocabulary as used now in DSpace is that  
it is not
dynamically updatable.  The metadata specialist or librarian is not  
able to
add terms to the Controlled Vocabulary.  That poses real problems when  
working with
Library of Congress Subject Headings.  While LCSH represents about  
300,000 controlled
terms, it allows for the flexibility to create pre-coordinated  
search strings.


For example, United States is an LCSH term.  Metadata specialists may  
wish to

add History  and further 1961-1969, so you end up with the following
controlled heading on the fly:

United States--History--1961-1969.

DCMI does not really address these issues.  After reading the  
documentation, not even

OCLC has implemented this.  The closest they have come is the Authority
Name Service which, by the way, uses the OCLC Authority Files as a  
basis for its

creation.

Now we see the crux of the problem with different metadata standards  
of DC, MARC21,  EAD
MODs, VRA, etc.  The newest standards have not dealt well with  
authority control, or dealt with

it at all.

For those who work with Library's ILSes, (Integrated Library Systems),  
you will find the
the authority record is able to control the headings in the  
bibliographic records (or the
item metadata as we say in DSpace) automatically by correcting the  
headings during

after hour processing, or in real update time.

While staffing is lean across the board, I think what Larry s  
proposing is one I would jump on
in a flash with no hesitation.  Using DCMI as it is, may in the long  
run, could prose larger

problems since it is, as they say, projection-ware .

My $.03 worth.  My apologies if I have offended anyone.

Larry,

I think this would be an interesting project.  But I will propose
three points of concern.

1.) Authority Control aligns with Vocabulary Encoding Constraints
found in the the DCMI DescriptionSetProfile
(http://dublincore.org/architecturewiki/DescriptionSetProfile).  More
specifically, DCMI Vocabulary constraints allow for a Vocabulary
Encoding to be defined and asserted on metadata values.  We are
working to express and utilize this for the DSpace 2.0 Metadata
Management and it would assist us highly if the implementation of
Authority Control took this model and its domain into consideration
when being implemented.  This is an example of our trying to assure
that changes made to 1.6 align with 2.0 and provide a stepping stone
for 1.5 users to 2.0. See:
https://scm.dspace.org/svn/repo/dspace2/trunk/api/src/main/java/org/dspace/services/model/metadata/NonLiteralConstraint.java
and consider that Vocabulary Encoding Constraints have their own set
of attributes it might be valuable to consider.

2.) Resources are spread pretty thin in the DSpace community and
catching, evaluating and committing in-house projects thrown over the
wall is quickly becoming a thing of the past.  I would recommend that
if this is something you want to see gotten into the codebase,
seriously consider getting the permissions necessary to do it yourself
(or perhaps permissions to do your proof of concept in an svn branch
at scm.dspace.org/svn/repo/dspace/branches first) and then merging it
in shortly afterward before it significantly deviates.  With the new
granular svn access controls this is indeed a tractable.  My concern
is that the 1.6 projects are piling up and assuring work is gotten in
requires time and effort on the part of the stakeholder.

3.) Confidence is an interesting idea, but certainly not part of the
DCMI DescriptionSetProfile.  We do need to consider how we will encode
assertions about metadata fields assigned to a resource, not only
something like confidence, but also, for instance who asserted it and
policies on its management. This reminds me of your
BitstreamFormatRenovation work, something I still consider important
to get into DSpace.  Considering not using the Data Model to directly
encode this, but instead looking to the same Service Architecture
strategy employed in 2.0 where alterations are encapsulated in a
separate model, service and persistence 

[Dspace-tech] Hide My Account in Manakin

I have tried a number of things. I know this portion of the page doesn't

[Dspace-tech] How to improve statistical data gathering and reporting?

2009-05-14 Thread Mark H. Wood
I'd like to start off some discussion of how DSpace can provide better
statistics on its content and functioning.  Here are some thoughts to
spark the conversation:

o  Statistics is a broad and diffuse topic.  We will probably
   identify more than one distinct area of focus.  What contributors
   need to see is not what the site's providers and champions need to
   see, is not what senior administrators need to see, is not what
   sysadmin.s need to see, is not what Promotion and Tenure committees
   need to see

o  Different sites may well have different bundles of needs --
   different enough that one package may not cover both sets of
   requirements.  At least in the short to medium term, we may profit
   from encouraging several complementary approaches.

o  It may be possible to slot in more than one package within a single
   repository.  Maybe statistics should be significantly modular
   within itself.

o  There's a lot of good work out there already.  We may get good
   results sooner from contributions to some of them, than from
   an attempt to start from scratch.

o  There are excellent external tools, whether you want to produce
   giant all-encompassing reports or run simple ad-hoc experiments.
   How can we support people who want to siphon DSpace's observations
   off into SAS, SPSS, R, Stata, Excel, whatever?

Re: [Dspace-tech] Hide My Account in Manakin

2009-05-14 Thread Walker, David
Hey Damian,

You probably want something like this in your theme XSLT (un-tested, sorry):

xsl:template match=dri:options/dri:li...@n = 'account'] priority=5
 
 xsl:if test= [ page logic here ] 
  xsl:apply-templates select=dri:head /
 
  div
   xsl:call-template name=standardAttributes
xsl:with-param name=classds-option-set/xsl:with-param
   /xsl:call-template
 
   ul class=ds-simple-list
xsl:apply-templates select=dri:item mode=nested/
   /ul
  /div
 xsl:if
/xsl:template

If you wanted to remove the My Account box completely, you could just have this 
template do nothing.  

But to have it appear on *certain* pages, you're going to have to replace the 
'[ page logic here ]' above with some kind of XPath expression that would look 
at, for example, the request URI data in the meta section of the Manakin XML, 
or perhaps the 'n' attribute on the first div in the body section.  Based 
on the values there, you could control which pages would continue to render 
this option.
