[Dspace-tech] Moving to Fedora?
Hello all, Maybe not the best place to post this query in terms of Brand Loyalty, but I wonder has anyone successfully moved their repository from DSpace to Fedora, or know of successful moves to Fedora? The big questions I'm interested in knowing more about include: How you moved the objects and their metadata (and which metadata) How you built the workflow system How you built the public user interface Of course at the end of the day the answer may be to wait for this to happen on its own, given the eventual merge of the DSpace and Fedora software, but there must be someone out there who's done it already! I would be most grateful for any information you would be willing to share.

Re: [Dspace-tech] Moving to Fedora?
The winners of the development competition at OR 2008 copied the contents of an ePrints repo to a Fedora repo using OAI-ORE. I think this technology is also now available in Dspace at 1.6. Might be worth some investigation. I suspect their OR2008 presentation will still be available somewhere. If not you could try to get in contact with Ben O'Steen (of Oxford Uni) who was the Fedora person.

Re: [Dspace-tech] Moving to Fedora?
Hi Joseph, First off just a side comment. At this point time, there are no plans to merge DSpace and Fedora software (as you had stated). Rather, DuraSpace is hoping to promote more interoperability between the two systems (thus allowing people to migrate content more easily between them). Currently, there's no easy solution to this migration. The OAI-ORE work that Robin mentioned could be a route (though it requires DSpace 1.6, which isn't fully released yet). DSpace also supports METS-based exports (which could be used to load contents into Fedora). Also, there was past NDIIPP funded project out of U of Illinois which provided a means to transfer contents between repositories (though this project has now ended): http://dli.grainger.uiuc.edu/echodep/hands/index.html There likely are many other routes out there... good luck! - Tim On Wed, Dec 16, 2009 at 8:05 AM, Robin Taylor robin.tay...@ed.ac.uk wrote: The winners of the development competition at OR 2008 copied the contents of an ePrints repo to a Fedora repo using OAI-ORE.

We're planning such a move, but mostly haven't gotten down to brass tacks yet. The big questions I'm interested in knowing more about include: How you moved the objects and their metadata (and which metadata) What I'm planning to do is export by collection. The Dublin Core can then be translated to FOXML via either XSLT or Python or (more likely) both. Bibliographic-style metadata can go into (mostly) MODS; there will be some wrinkles because of custom metadata (ETD-MS, a few other fields added for specific clientele), but on the whole, I don't expect this to be horrendously difficult. We do not plan to respect the DSpace content model, particularly. It makes more sense to us to translate it into the content models we're developing in Fedora for the digital-library side of the house. A few of our DSpace collections will want special handling, either because Fedora can do a better job of relating files and objects to each other than DSpace can, or (in one case) because it's an HTML collection that really should be treated as a straight-up image collection. I'll deal with those case-by-case; I don't have so many oddball DSpace collections that it will be onerous. How you built the workflow system We're in the requirements-gathering and mocking-up-via-XForms phase of this effort; we expect a lot of this work to be custom. In my opinion, those who don't have serious development talent in-house would be well-advised to look at RODA, Fez, Muradora, or Islandora. (We do expect to use Islandora or something Islandora-ish as well, to connect to various Drupal installations around campus. The SWORD protocol also interests us from a middleware perspective, of course.) If you're doing ETDs, you may want to watch for the release of OpenETD at Rutgers -- we certainly are. If it does just *half* of what they're saying it does, it's a huge win. How you built the public user interface That's ongoing also, and is deriving more from the digital-library than the IR side of the house. This is fine with me; our digital-library materials cover 90-95% of what I would like to see the IR do as well as or better than DSpace does. We haven't entirely sorted out what we're going to do with the DSpace communities-and-collections structure. Much of it can be jettisoned, thankfully, but the current thinking is that we will need some way to do mini-portals and/or individualized collections because we are a consortial outfit. Good luck with your migration, and let's both document what we do, to help others on the same path!

[Dspace-tech] Item level statistics for XMLUI
Hi Federico, Did you ever get a response to your question? I also have the same question and hope someone can offer relevant information. We are using DSpace 1.5.2, XMLUI, on a Windows server, and also need to implement item-level statistics for our collection. I did not realize that the Minho package only works with the JSPUI... very disappointing.

I'm looking to implement some kind of item level stats for Dspace 1.5.2, using XMLUI, Ubuntu 8.04.3 LTS. My first shot was to try Minho RepositoriUM Statistics, but as far as i know it only works for JSPUI, using the info facility. Then I thought about University of Rochester's Dspace statistics package, Nathan Sarr gently told me that it's no longer supported, so there is little chance for it to work with Dspace 1.5.2. I'm already using Google Analytics, but you already know it's not enough. Any advice on this topic will be really appreciated.

Re: [Dspace-tech] Item level statistics for XMLUI
Hi Alice, Your best bet might be to wait for a month or two until 1.6 is released, and upgrade. One of the new features it will include is a new statistics module that can report statistics at the item, collection, or community level. DSpace 1.6 will include the statistics collection and basic reporting functions, but future releases will likely build on this to include richer reporting functions. An example can be seen at http://testathon.net/xmlui/handle/123456789/31/statistics Thanks, Stuart Lewis IT Innovations Analyst and Developer Te Tumu Herenga The University of Auckland Library Auckland Mail Centre, Private Bag 92019, Auckland 1142, New Zealand Ph: 64 9 373-7599 x81928 http://www.library.auckland.ac.nz/ On 17/12/2009, at 7:37 AM, Platt, Alice wrote: Hi Federico, Did you ever get a response to your question?
