You are hereby invited to RepoCamp in Washington DC on July 25th.

  http://barcamp.pbwiki.com/RepoCamp

RepoCamp is a one-day free and open event where folks who are
interested in managing and creating digital repository software and
their contents can gather and share ideas, innovations, trials and
tribulations, implement solutions...and have a drink or two
afterwards.

The event is co-sponsored by the JISC Common Repository Interfaces
Working Group [1] and the Library of Congress. The CRIG is doing some
really interesting outreach work into and outside of the digital
repository community. RepoCamp will mark the end of their US tour
[2], so you can expect at the very least to hear what they've learned
during their travels.

One of the key goals of the event is to practically explore what
repository interoperability means...and to hack on solutions. But the
space can definitely be used to explore other aspects of digital
repository work. If you use off the shelf software like Fedora,
DSpace, EPrints, Omeka, Drupal, etc. or write your own software for
depositing, managing, accessing digital content you will fit right in.

If you are interested in attending sign up on the wiki, and add your
ideas for the event. The invite/password to edit the pages is 'c4mp'.

[Dspace-tech] generation of format.extent and format.mimetype

2007-04-13 Thread Farrell,Gabriel
After the upgrade from 1.3.2 to 1.4.1, our DSpace instance stopped
showing the dc.format.extent and dc.format.mimetype in the full metadata
record for newly created items.  See, for example,
http://idea.library.drexel.edu/handle/1860/1204?mode=fullsubmit_simple=
Show+full+item+record, an item created before the update, versus
http://idea.library.drexel.edu/handle/1860/1377?mode=fullsubmit_simple=
Show+full+item+record, an item created after.  A quick look in the
database reveals that the newer item has no entries for
metadata_field_id 34 or 36, extent or mimetype.  

This information is now stored somewhere else (still shows up in the
View/Open box).  Was this a purposeful change from 1.3.2 to 1.4.1, or
has our installation gone a little awry?

 Hello Gabriel,
 
 this was a purposeful change.
 
 This metadata is no longer created on item creation. The 
 reason was, that it referred to individual bitstreams and not 
 the item, e. g. having an item with foo1.pdf foo2.pdf and 
 thus 2 times format.extent and format.mimetype it was no 
 longer clear which metainformation belonged to which bitstream.
 

That does make sense.  Thanks for the clarification. 

 With the new data/metadata model as result of the 
 architectural review there will be better mechanisms for 
 data-metadata handling in the future.
 

Great.  Looking forward to it.

 
 Claudia

 Hi all,
 
 I did a bad thing :).
 I moved my search box to the upper right corner of the UI. 
 The move of the form has now broken my eperson pop-ups
 
 Is there a patch/fix for this? I did find something about 
 changing the javascript from to window.document.forms[1] from 
 window.document.forms[0], however this didn't seem to work.
 
 Ideas?
 
 thank you!

Hi Susan!

Have you made any headway on this issue?  I'm looking at our install for
reference, but I'm not sure what you mean by eperson pop-ups.
