This is a working page for the in-progress SOURCE migration interface for Fedora.

Goals and Use Cases

Use Case #1: "I've installed Fedora. Now what do I do with it?"

1. pulling from local system
   • Uploading directly from browser to Fedora (smaller files)
   • Pull from an ingest folder on the server (larger files, many files) – allows you to use any FTP/DAV/etc. tool to upload – JWA
   • Attempt to transform Zip files (and LoC Bags) into complex objects according to predefined "mappings" (ie. JWA Oral Histories) JWA
2. pull from legacy system: intrallect, transforming content from IMS-CP into APP and saving both data streams
