2014 Meeting objectives
From August until December 2014, the monthly DCAT meetings are centered around defining, refining and prioritizing DSpace use cases.
These use cases are expected to have an important impact on the medium and long term roadmap of DSpace, starting with DSpace 6 in 2015.
August Meeting Agenda: End user use cases
During the august meeting we will be discussing use cases that affect users who use DSpace:
- as anonymous, non-logged in users
- as registered, logged-in users who do not have any specific administrative rights or responsibilities. For such users, submission can fall under the use cases.
