Dear Eloy, Bram  Carol,

As Eloy was the first to adopt the Button for DSpace, could you or Bram (or 
anyone else) please help with this? 

It apparently needs an upgrade, and it's especially important to provide and 
embed it in DSpace core at this crucial time in the evolution of OA policy 
worldwide. 

The Button is an essential component in an effective OA mandate.

Many thanks for any help or information you can provide,

Stevan

 Subject: Request for information on repository request-copy Button
 
 I received a message stating that you are interested in the use of Request 
 Copy button in repositories.
 
 We at the Smithsonian Libraries use DSpace and have employed the Request Copy 
 button for several years.
 
 However, it is becoming problematic as the plugin does not seem to have any 
 active development or upgrades.
 
 I'm not sure how familiar you are with DSpace but for several versions, there 
 has been an XML user interface as well as the original JSP (java server 
 pages) interface.
 
 
 The Request Copy plugin only works with *.jsp and that is very limiting.
 
 We would like to upgrade to the current version but will have to give up the 
 functionality which many of our users like to have.
 
 
 Please take a minute to tell me something about your interest and your work.
 
 Best,

[GOAL] Re: Request for information on repository request-copy Button

2013-10-17 Thread Eloy Rodrigues
Dear Stevan,

 

I completely support the request to have the Request Copy functionality 
embedded in the vanilla DSpace versions. We've been upgrading the Request 
Copy Add-on (for the jsp interface, that it's the one we are using) since we 
first developed it.

 

We are currently upgrading the Add-on for DSpace 3.2 (we are upgrading our 
repository to DSpace 3.2), and the production version of the Add-on is for 
DSpace 1.8xx repositories.

 

We are obviously willing to contribute the Addon code to be included in the 
DSpace core, and strongly support that integration.

 

Best,
