Suggested Topics
- Updates from the DSpace "new UI initiative" (DSpace UI Prototype Challenge) and the RoadMap to DSpace 7
- NOTE: Much of this will be discussed in the DIG2 session on Weds at 2pm. So, we don't want to rehash that exact presentation.
- However, this might be an opportunity to dive deeper and get immediate feedback, questions or concerns from attendees
- Possibly a brief "deep dive" into the Angular 2 prototype at https://github.com/DSpace-Labs/angular2-ui-prototype?
- DSpace-CRIS discussion (led by Michele Mennielli and Andrea Bollini of Cineca): Overview of project, its latest status, and discussion of how we could start to feed this back into the "core" of DSpace
- What features of DSpace-CRIS are of high interest to DSpace users?
- Steering Group sees DSpace-CRIS as possibly providing DSpace with strategic and competitive advantages. How do we move this forward?
- What parts should we investigate including in "out of the box" DSpace?
- What parts are distributed possibly as "extensions" or "add-ons"?
