Hi Mikko,

We've developed our own interface: http://dlib.york.ac.uk (also reused here
iris-database.org).

To answer your questions ...

> Do you use ready apps, libraries, frameworks or made your own UI?

The site uses Solr, Tiles, the Javascript YUI and Spring Security. The GUI
design is based on YUI grids. We also use IIP for image streaming.

> If you ended up coding your own GUI, what were the reasons?

We initially started out with Muradora (this is still in use in our admin
side - we'll be writing that out over the next year) but that is no longer
actively developed and we had some requirements that muradora didn't really
support.

At the time when we needed an interface there wasn't really anything that
fit our needs - blacklight and hydra were in their early days, Islandora
too. We also got some funding. Another consideration was that we needed
fairly granular access control and we have been able to use FeSL combined
with our own interface to deliver that.

If we were making the decision again now we would certainly look first at
Hydra / Islandora.

Best,

Julie
