Hello *, Sorry for taking this thread up again. As we at U.PORTO are also very interested in the Federated Repository issue, due to our Organization distribution.
Could some one tell if the proposal of Lerry Stone in the Dspace wiki: http://wiki.dspace.org/index.php/ObjectUri Is being considered in the future versions of Dspace ? On the other hand Scott, does this patch you developed fulfill Larry requirements of ObjectUri ? if so, can you share it with the community ? My ideia is to integrate this new type of objects in our Batch Import System, even if it takes Database changes.
