- A Newspaper title called Evening Express which is our largest newspaper with 187,331 objects
- A Journal Title called ‘Wales’ which has a sufficient number of rights issues for testing.
The upgration pilot page [4] is nearly complete, and a mapping for the Newspapers to PCDM [5] has been created.
A meeting will be organized to map born digital objects to PCDM.

The initial documentation phase of the upgration pilot is now complete. This included:
...
- Testing the use of an external triplestore for Fedora 4
- Coding a migration API that will be used to migrate objects from Fedora 3 to Fedora 4. Currently, the development work has focused on testing ingestion to Fedora 4 using the Fedora 4 API. This includes starting the transaction, creating containers, adding binary files, updating properties and committing the transaction.
- Reviewing the Fedora 3 to Fedora 4 object and datastream property mappings based on feedback
- Further investigating mapping the UNSWorks repository according to the Portland Common Data Model

As the project entered the third month, work shifted to migration work, and we also a welcomed a new developer to the project, Jared Whiklo (University of Manitoba).
The upgration work was focused a couple parts. The first was collaborating with Mike Durbin (University of Virgina) on fcrepo4-labs/migration-utils [6].
migration-utils will support an upgration in this order:
...
The second part that the migration work focused on was data modeling [7]. Specifically, mapping fcrepo3 object properties to fcrepo4 container properties, fcrepo3 datastream properties to fcrepo4 file properties, mapping RELS-EXT properties, and bringing Islandora into compliance with the Portland Common Data Model [8]. This work was shared with the community via a Large Image Solution Pack example object modeled in Fedora 4.
Related to the migration work, was the Audit Service [9] design work. Nick participated in all of the Audit Service design meetings, and led a discussion around PROV and PREMIS ontology usage in the service. On March 30, a code sprint devoted to the Audit Service will begin, and it will be led by Esme Coles. That work is outlined here [10].
The migration work will most likely continue through April.
