    • How can entities be made more usable?
    • Relationships and nested/hierarchical metadata
  • Shall we automatically change metadata in flyway migrations? 
    • Entities
      • 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?

    • Relationships and nested hierarchical metadata
