- Improving performance / scalability in general
- High CPU usage for server-side rendering, https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-angular/issues/3110
- Unable to route network requests to different REST URL during server-side rendering (public vs private REST requests): https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-angular/issues/1485
- Serve REST configuration more efficiently: https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/issues/9056
- User permissions should be obtained in fewer REST requests: https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-angular/issues/3161
- Submission Form should be loaded using fewer REST requests: https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-angular/issues/3162
- Search Results should be loaded using fewer REST requests: https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-angular/issues/3163
- Easier Installation and Upgrades
- Discussions around simplifying installation process: https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-angular/issues/3184
- Use "npm" instead of "yarn" for frontend installation: https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-angular/pull/3173
- Can we simplify the installation/upgrade process of DSpace, especially now that there's a frontend & backend to manage?
- Code Cleanup / Maintenance
- Dependency upgrades: Upgrade to Angular 18 & Spring Boot 3.3
- Replace Submission Form library (as the one we use is unmaintained): https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-angular/issues/2216
- All collections should have a workflow – a default noninteractive workflow would facilitate applying curation tasks (such as virus scanning) to all submissions: https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/issues/8820
- Shall we automatically change metadata in flyway migrations?
- DOIs
- Changing the field a DOI is using (dc.identifier.uri vs. dc.identifier.doi)
- Changing the resolver (https://doi.org vs. http://dx.doi.org)
- DOIs
- Enabling Configurable Entities by default (Potential alignment with DSpace-CRIS?)
- What do we need to achieve to enable Entities by default?
- How can entities be made more usable?
- Improving scalability/performance/functionality of Relationships
- Basic Nested/hierarchical metadata (e.g. dates on a Person's affiliation with an OrgUnit). Related also to https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/issues/9736
- If entities are enabled by default how could a migration look like? Shall we offer a script to add a field dspace.entity.type="Publication" to all items without an entity type?
- Convert a Relationship to a DSpaceObject - it will benefit of all the DSpaceObject has to offer, like: metadata, resource policies
- Modularization
- Angular : library-based architecture proposal - As of 8.0, we've already migrated to "standalone components". We can now consider whether to potentially migrate to using Nx.
- Do we need a UI/UX guide to enable module developer to achieve a common "DSpace" look and feel? https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-angular/issues/3211
- Enhanced Statistics for DSpace (volunteer: Paulo Graça )
- Paulo volunteered to perhaps start an interest group / working group around Statistics enhancements as his organization is interested in enhancing this for DSpace.
- Features which existed in DSpace 6 (and earlier)
- Bitstream persistence URLs - As of DSpace 7, there are no persistent URLs for bitstreams. The URL is based on UUID, and if you replace or version a bitstream the URL will change: https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/issues/9083
- CMS - bringing back old features to new the DSpace version like the ability to the admin user to change content like: news, default license,... https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-angular/issues/3200
- Administrative User Interface enhancements/improvements
- Associate submission forms to collections in the UI - https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-angular/issues/3194
- The bitstream permissions flow is confusing, we should improve the usability - https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-angular/issues/3203
- Any DSpaceObject, like a Bitstream can have custom fields. After creation, there should be a place in the UI to view and edit them
- Communities/Collections: there should be a wayin the UIto move sub-communities to a different place: https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-angular/issues/3196, https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-angular/issues/3198
- Permissions: Possibility of granting granular permission to individuals and groups to edit / see only some metadata
- Results of DCAT UX Project Team Testing
