Hi All,

We've rigged up DSpace 4.2 to accept METS (zip) packages via the Sword 2
API and am now looking at a couple of items. I thought that, in the first
instance, I'd see if the following are possible:

1. Is it possible to set the DSpace object's visibility via the METS
metadata?

For example, in the amdSec element we could use a METS Rights declaration
and assign privileges using the Context/Permissions element:

<Context CONTEXTCLASS="GENERAL PUBLIC">
>                             <Permissions
>                                 DISCOVER="true"
>                                 DISPLAY="true"
>                                 COPY="false"
>                                 DUPLICATE="false"
>                                 MODIFY="false"
>                                 DELETE="false"
>                                 PRINT="false"
>                                 OTHER="false" />
> </Context>


2. Can the actual mets.xml file be extracted as an attachment (bitstream)
in the object?

   - We have the mets.xml being stored with the object as per the
   configuration option (keep-original-package)
   - We could create a second copy of the mets and point to it from the
   <fileSec> or even have the <file> item self-reference the mets file




More than happy to expand on these as needed.

Regards,

Duncan
