Dzieńdobry Mateusz! In the SKOSified world, hierarchies are all around: http://www.w3.org/2004/02/skos/ My proposal for authority control in DSpace is based on the SKOS standard design. DSpace is managing human targeted catalogues of simple and flat objects. But, if fields of those objects can

Hi again Mateusz! If you want to keep more than current affiliation of the author, I see two possible solutions: 1) You add an intermediate object to keep information about when the author worked at a given institution and with which responsibilities. Such a structure is too heavy to be

I have to wonder whether some of these relationships should be in a document repository at all. It sounds like you are building a biographical index, which has many uses beyond document retrieval. Better, perhaps, to make it a separate service and ensure that it and DSpace expose interfaces

The first time around might be a trial, but if we did a quick review before regression testing each minor release, once the first one was done, it would probably be an easy task. Obviously it would be beneficial to the stability of the platform considering the amount of transitive bug fixes

I have been testing with jdom 1.1 since December and jdom 1.1.1 for the last couple of weeks with no negative side effects, but I'll look a little closer before I get back to you. It's become more of a question now that we're actually doing our 1.6 migration to production. ..\Wendy Wendy

If you want to change where things are placed on the final page, that is layout, and layout is handled by XSL in the Theme stage. Aspects add substructures to a big XML structure (the DRI document) which holds the nonstatic data that go into the page, and then the Theme takes what it wants from
