Module/class name	Description/Comments	Source code
dspace-api	DSpace API	http://scm.dspace.org/svn/repo/dspace/trunk/dspace-api
dspace-xmlui	XMLUI (Manakin)	http://scm.dspace.org/svn/repo/dspace/trunk/dspace-xmlui
storage-api	Constitute of DSpace 2 storage interfaces. Will be referenced from dspace-xmlui and other modules which will use new storage mechanism.	http://scm.dspace.org/svn/repo/modules/dspace-storage/trunk/api/
storage-legacy	Yet non existant module. Module will implement storage-api interfaces. Basically it will be the shim allowing modules to access DSpaceObjects (in dspace-api) using new storage-api.	-
dspace-services	DSpace services module. DSpace services framework will be used to manage and gain access to storage-api implementations.	http://scm.dspace.org/svn/repo/modules/dspace-services/
ProvidedStorageService	Class which acts as a mediator between caller and storage service implementations. However, its usage is questionable.	http://scm.dspace.org/svn/repo/modules/dspace-storage/trunk/impl/src/main/java/org/dspace/services/storage/ProvidedStorageService.java

Development plan

Analysis part:
- Analysis of dspace-api module
- Analysis of dspace-services module
(http://scm.dspace.org/svn/repo/modules/dspace-services/trunk)
- Deeper review of spring usage in DSpace
- Analysis of dspace-database module
- Analysis of dspace-storage-db-2.0.x module
- Analysis of AIP prototype
Better dspace-api adaptation api adaptation to changing needs:
- Evaluation and incorporation of changes described at at https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/GSoC+Collaboration+Scratchpad
- Implementation of changes decided during changes decided during commiter/student meetings
Implementation of storage-legacy module
dspace-xmlui relation to storage-api
