[MCN-L] open source OpenEdit DAM

2008-12-02 Thread Nilsen, Dianne
Dear Janice,

The list below was cut from a report I created last Spring.  This may
help explain some of the drivers that influence our digitization
process.  I hope this helps.

Best,
Dianne


CCP Priorities for Imaging Collections:

The Center's bi-monthly curatorial team meetings provide a forum where
collections are discussed by knowledgeable staff and prioritized for
scanning.  The photographers noted below do not represent all the
Center's collections that have been digitized to date, but the list
provides an example of driving forces that influence how CCP prioritizes
the scanning of collections.  (Note some bodies of work will naturally
fall into more than one of the driving forces noted below which adds
weight to the priority) 


1. Core Archives:  (100% completed) 
Ansel Adams 
Harry Callahan 
Frederick Sommer (check new acquisitions)
Wynn Bullock 
Aaron Siskind

2. Archive/Donor Relations/Contracts: 
Milton Rogovin (100%) 
Rosalind Solomon (80% completed)
Brett Weston  (95% completed)
Alma Lavenson (not fully accessioned)

3. Copyrights Owned or Administered:
Edward Weston (100%)
John Gutmann (100%) 
Louise Dahl-Wolfe (100%)
Lola Alvarez Bravo (100%)

4. Historical Significance:
W. Eugene Smith (100%)
Lee Friedlander (100%)
Wright Morris (100%)
Walker Evans (100%)
Tina Modotti (100%)
Robert Heinecken (75%)
Ralph Gibson 


5. Other Drivers influencing Imaging Priorities
Exhibitions
Publications
Rights and Reproductions requests
Outgoing Loans
New Acquisitions
Research fellows

[MCN-L] open source OpenEdit DAM

2008-12-02 Thread David Dwiggins
I've played with ResourceSpace a bit, and have been monitoring the
development mailing list for the last few months. I think it looks
like a really promising project. The interface is very nice, and the
code and data structures behind it seem straightforward enough that it
can easily be modified and customized. I think there are a few
"industrial strength" features I'd like to see added (like easily
accessible permanent URLs for resources, for example.)  But by and
large I could see it working well -- and am considering the
possibility of adopting it, at least on a trial basis.

I particularly like some of the features it has for allowing users to
group resources into sets and then share the resulting sets with
others.

The original developer is very active on the mailing list, and is
hiring out for consulting gigs to add features. He's also running a
hosted installation of the software for those who want that -- but
unlike some pseudo-open source products, he seems very willing to
accept contributions from the public, and the software is pretty easy
to get going on your own as well. So it seems like a fairly good open
source model.

I'd be interested in hearing from anyone else who has looked at this.

[MCN-L] open source OpenEdit DAM

2008-12-01 Thread Julie Riley OpenEdit
Hi,

I came across Ari's blog regarding open source digital asset management 
or the lack thereof... I'd like to introduce our open source software, 
OpenEdit DAM. http://www.openeditDAM.com

OpenEdit is a JAVA based 100% pure web DAM solution and can be run on 
any platform. We have been working with corporations and organizations 
in need of DAM for several years which has allowed us to develop a 
robust digital asset management solution.

OpenEdit DAM users include single users as well as those needing an 
enterprise-wide DAM system. OpenEdit DAM allows you to manage and share 
all of your digital files, you can upload, download, search, share, 
etc., it's a very feature rich application.

OpenEdit is free to download, install and use, technical support is free 
via our online user forum.

Please take a look at OpenEdit and let me know what you think!

Regards,

Julie Riley
