- DS587 tombstone (Sarah):discussion forum,JIRA
- status as of last mtg:
- some disagreement on tombstone reasons, what metadata would be displayed - discussion came up too late (Jose's version vs. Richard's)
- still trying to get XMLUI tombstone reason for withdrawn item in to 1.8
- status as of last mtg:
- DS638 virus checking/check file format (Elin):discussion forum (https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/dsforum/DSpace+*+DS-638++check+files+on+input+for+viruses%2C+and+verify+file+format),JIRA
- virus checking is in 1.8, file format checking is written and tested, but did not make it into 1.8
- status as of last mtg:
- dependent on curation task work that MIT, not quite done, trying to follow same format for virus checking
- can do file format checking - but NOT at submission
- Robin to create a separate JIRA issue for file format checking at submission-->DS-1093
- DS164 deposit interface for modifying input forms.xml (Jim): discussion forum, JIRA https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-164
- GSoC project - do away with item-submission.xml and input-forms.xml and instead create an Admin UI that allows repo managers reorganize the submission UI
- GSoC student wants to continue work on project
- sample screenshot wiki page
- status as of last mtg:
- some muddling w/an adjacent GSoC project - Jim to resurrect original request and propose next steps
- Per Robin - suggest break this issue into smaller tasks, starting with (It may be that there are already existing issues for some #2 looks to be addressed by DS-464)
- 1. A screen or screens to allow the administrator to edit the format of the metadata collection screens
- 2. The ability to select the type of an item and collect appropriate metadata accordingly
- GSoC project - do away with item-submission.xml and input-forms.xml and instead create an Admin UI that allows repo managers reorganize the submission UI
- DS-560 XMLUI News in config dir (Bram): discussion forum, JIRA
- XMLUI interface is not as useful as JSPUI for news config, Bram proposed to have a more flexible front page
- Do we have a DCAT consensus? If so, does it still make sense to hold a community-wide discussion for both feedback and developer resource identification?
- going back to the priority of just making XMLUI news editable - Bram
- DS-456 create easy upgrade scripts (Iryna): discussion forum, JIRA
- no developer assigned yet
