[Dspace-tech] Duplicate log configuration for Solr?

2014-10-31 Thread Àlex Magaz Graça
Hi,

While adjusting the logging configuration (DSpace 4.1) I've noticed Solr 
logs seem to be configured in two places: log4j.properties [1] and 
log4j-solr.properties. If this is intended, what is the difference?

https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/blob/master/dspace/config/log4j.properties#L104

Thanks,
Àlex

Re: [Dspace-tech] Question about metedata localizaton

2014-10-31 Thread Alex Dubiv
 Hi Helix84!
Thank you for quick reply!
I see there's no relatively  easy way to do it on our current 4.2 
installation ))
After some more searching I found a thread of  Kostas Stamatis  with similar 
problem. , I've contacted with him and got reply:
*
Dear Alex,
as helix mentioned in his reply, the pull request shown in  
https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/pull/660  was to be included in DSpace 5.0 but 
we have cancelled the contribution because even if the code is working (as you 
can see from the demos) we haven’t included all the cases so it is somehow 
incomplete.
 
However, I think that in your case it suits very well. I also believe that even 
if it is build on top of the master branch, you can apply the patch to DSpace 
4.2 as well.
 
So, what you have to do actually is the following: go to  
https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/pull/660/files  and see all the files that I 
have changed in order to accomplish the functionality. Do the same changes to 
your files, as well. The changes mention the line of code, but since it is 
build on top of master and not on top of 4.2, these lines can be slightly 
different. But do not expect radical changes.
 
After that go to  https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-2163  and download the 
documentation to see how to configure the extension in order to achieve what 
you want.
 
Hope it helps.

So I will try to patch 4.2 in order to get functionality today.
Thank you all for help!

Hi Alex,

you're raising valid concerns regarding localization. There was code
proposed to address that in DSpace 5 [1], unfortunately it was
postponed by the contributor for technical reasons, but we'll likely
see it reworked in DSpace 6. I also proposed an improvement to facets
which would include an ability to localize them (regardless of their
actual values, so that you could localize en_US to американський
англійський) in [2], but there is no implementation of that.

Apart from facets, it's desirable to localize Collection and Community
names. The foundation for this has been laid in DSpace 5 by [3], but
it's not yet represented in UI elements, to be addressed as the next
step.

In other words, we're slowly getting there. You can either wait for
DSpace 6 or chip in and submit a patch if you have Java skills.

Re: [Dspace-tech] trying to find pdf file from upload.

2014-10-31 Thread Adan Roman

Hi all

I had studied the advantages of both libraries for a project and I 
concluded that basically itext is best for creation and modification of 
pdfs, while PDFBox highlighted in the extraction of information from 
these pdfs.


If DSpace is intended to add the ability to convert / download documents 
in different formats, I think it's worth checking out as it does 
Alfresco. It use openofice installed as a service, and other 
applications to convert documents

between formatson demand.

It might be worth it to take a peak at the old iText. I noticed in a 
StackOverflow post that it exists. I guess we could make a content 
disseminator interface. Subclass that to PDF-Citation-CoverPage, then 
have a PDFBOX implementation, and an iText (LGPL) implementation, and 
have spring wire it up. So, unfortunately DSpace 5 will have a 
disclaimer in the instructions that PDFBOX coverpage will not handle 
unicode characters. So, then for DSpace 6, a year from now. Will 
PDFBOX update to support unicode characters/fonts, or will LGPL iText 
be the only route forward. I did contact iText (AGPL) to see if they 
would create an exception for DSpace, but they declined, basically 
we'd have to pay per server that will use DSpace, umm. 2000+.


This is post-DSpace-5 work. But I'm thinking that if you think of the 
OAIS model, of SIP (Submission Package), AIP (Archival Package), DIP 
(Dissemination Package). That, with PDF Citation Cover page, we have 
the ability to generate a new DIP for content. (Similar to media 
filter I guess). So, if we wanted the ability to add Download As RTF, 
DOC, etc, that could be an extension to disseminator. Keeping the 
original PDF as Archive / AIP.

Hi Adán,

we've already been using PDFbox in DSpace before this feature for PDF
text extraction and thumbnail generation in filter-media and as a PDF
packager, so this is a good choice. That said, we'll need to address
the encoding issue mentioned and described in [1] - probably by
upgrading when PDFbox 2 is released and uploaded to Maven Central, but
if you can find another way, a patch for 5.x will be highly
appreciated.

[Dspace-tech] Let your voice be heard!

2014-10-31 Thread Valorie Hollister
Sent on behalf of Jonathan Markow - Apologies for the cross posting


Dear Colleague, 

DuraSpace’s open source projects -- DSpace, Fedora, and VIVO -- are officially 
launching the nominations phase of our Leadership Group elections.

New Project Governance
As you may be aware, each DuraSpace project is transitioning to a new 
governance model. This representative, community-based model includes several 
governing groups with various levels of responsibility (identifying project 
strategic direction, setting project roadmap, establishing project budget, 
etc.). Eligibility to serve in project governance is determined by 
participation in the DuraSpace Membership Program, incrementally enabling 
member organizations who have made the greatest commitments (financial or 
in-kind staff commitments) to the project. It is NOT TOO LATE to become a 
Member and participate in DSpace project governance! For more information on 
how to become a Member visit http://duraspace.org/about_membership. And for 
more information about the new governing groups, please visit  
http://dspace.org/governance.
 
Leadership Group
Individuals sitting on the Leadership Group play a key role in setting the 
strategic direction and priorities of the project through:
Approval of the annual budget allocation
Approval of the project roadmap
Establishment of the community direction

The Leadership Group will be partly comprised of individuals from organizations 
that have contributed $10,000 or more annually to the project and 
representatives from institutions contributing in-kind resources at approved 
levels. Institutions that contribute at lower membership levels will also be 
given an opportunity to serve on a Leadership Group, through annual elections 
based on policies that are customized by each project. This election process is 
where everyone in the community (both from member organizations and non-member 
organizations) can have a voice -- by nominating candidates for the Leadership 
Group from the pool of eligible member organizations.

Leadership Group Nominations
Beginning today, we invite anyone in the DSpace community, member or 
non-member, to nominate an individual who you believe would be a good 
representative of the community.  All nominees must be from DSpace member 
organizations that qualify for elections (see full list here: 
http://bit.ly/dspace_members). Typically, Leadership Group candidates have 
fiscal or staffing responsibility within their organization and are able to 
allocate resources.  And of course, they will, in your judgment, be able to 
bring the commitment, creativity, and dedication that the role calls for. 
Self-nominations are welcome and you may submit more than one nomination. 
Please submit your nomination/s using this form http://bit.ly/LGnomination by 
November 7. 

Next Steps
At the end of the nomination process anyone nominated will be asked for a brief 
personal statement, which can either be emailed to vhollis...@duraspace.org or 
posted directly to the DuraSpace wiki. Voting will be based on membership 
levels and will take place before the end of November, with each member 
organization’s Community Liaison casting a vote for candidates based on the 
direction of their management. We will send additional instructions at the 
start of the election period later in November.

If you have any questions about the new DSpace project governance or the 
nomination and election process please contact me. 

Thank you,

Jonathan Markow
