Contribute to the DSpace Development Fund
The newly established DSpace Development Fund supports the development of new features prioritized by DSpace Governance. For a list of planned features see the fund wiki page.
Scope and Objectives
DSpace is the most widely adopted open source repository in the world with thousands of installations in more than 120 countries. The DSpace Leadership Group is willing to strengthen the relationship with the community and for this reason has formed this Community Engagement Working Group.
The goals of the DSpace Community Engagement Working Group are:
- Developing short- and long-term strategies for building relationship with DSpace users
- Identifying ways for DSpace Leaders to participate in and support these efforts
- Defining initiatives to encourage users to become paying members of DSpace
Anyone is welcome to join the Working Group. If you are interested, please contact Michele Mennielli at LYRASIS (michele.mennielli@lyrasis.org).
