Yes, that is indeed correct, at least as far as the little I have investigated of Dspace (I have not had the time to look at Invenio). I have had a little more time to play with Alfresco, and it seems to be geared towards organising document collections, sharing them with others, and allowing for collaboration with pre-defined workflows. There is also some talk of integrating Alfresco with Dspace. We also use Dspace at Sarai for organising our archive. Maybe that is the point where we can share resources. [...] > Yes. Must meet after you come back! OK, I am on my way back, and will give you a call tomorrow.
