Depositors (i.e. Dr Smith) should not be allowed to replace or delete submissions, period. A system manager should be authorized to do that, and Dr Smith is welcome to give her a call to make it happen. But I presume you have policies for submission and retention of deposited items, so the idea is to stick to them... the only reason we would delete an item from our DSpace is if there were some serious error (deliberate or not), plagiarism, or other legal challenge. Otherwise we would "suppress" it from public display but hang onto it. There are many variations on these policies, of course, but allowing users to delete stuff from a preservation archive just doesn't strike me as a good idea...

It was a long way to travel and your attendance was much appreciated. We hope you found the conference relevant and informative, and had a great time in Sydney.

Preferably this can be an expanded version of the SUBMIT authorization, however as ADMIN authorization is also ok. I searched the dspace-tech archives and understand this function is purposefully not in Dspace. Frank Wong wrote a patch, 2005-05-18. Our java programmer has added it, but the ADMIN group still have no access to adding or removing bitstreams. I have snipped below the patch Frank wrote. If he or anyone else could please give further instructions how to make it work, I would be grateful. Our Java programmer (essentially from another project) is not yet fluent in Dspace code. snip>> From: Frank Wong RE: Authorization Required ? 2005-05-18 23:51 Hi Scott, Thanks for your reply. I did a little trick on the source file. "admin/EditItemServlet.java" to bypass the Admin checking. // only process bitstreams if admin else if (p.startsWith("bitstream_name") ) // && AuthorizeManager.isAdmin(context)) It works for my case.

The documentation says that you first need to get the prefix by going to the handle website, but then they say to run the handle setup included in dspace first. So I ran the handle configuration and emailed the sitebndl.zip file to them. They then returned with a prefix. What do I do from here? The documentation just ends after emailing handle! I configured the dspace.cfg file to use my prefix and ran the install-configs script. I also edited the config.dct file and specified the prefix and then started the handle server. What else needs to be done, how can I test this. Any help or direction would be mucho appreciated!

Message-ID: <43EFC3B9.2090201@anu.edu.au> Hi Andrew, Sounds like you've done all that needs to be done. To test, add an item to your repository and use the hdl.handle.net url (as shown on the item page) to access the item. If the item is found it means you have successfully registered your repository with the global CNRI handle registry and have successfully set up your DSpace handle server. If it turns out you have any issues with the handle server, can you send details of any problems to the dspace-tech list, as subscribers to that list will be well-placed to help you with any technical problems.

DSpace uses Qualified Dublin Core for submission and exposes UnQualified DC for OAI-PMH. When we use OAI command ?verb=ListIdentifers&metadataPrefix=oai_dc we will have Citation http://hdl.handle.net/1849/212 Now when we harvest our DL with our harvester (we use PKP Harvester), it picks up citation as URI, not the handle. (Citation appears first rather than uri) I changed OAICrosswalk.java to suppress the element idetifier.citation and exposed only identifier.uri, to get the desired result. But somehow I am not comfortable supressing some information, rather I would have preferred to expose first identifier.uri then identifier.citation. This requires more change in the code of OAICrosswalk.java. I believe that DC itself should give an element exclusively of Handle as this is going to be a very important and unique identifier. Has anybody come across this problem? Does anybody think they have better way to deal with this problem? regards ard -- A.R.D.Prasad Associate Professor Documentation Research and Training Centre, Indian Statistical Institute, 8th Mile, Mysore Road, Bangalore - 560 059 Karnataka, INDIA Phone: 91-80-8483002/3/4 extsn no. 496 Fax : 91-80-8484265 email: ard at drtc.isibang.ac.in website:http://drtc.isibang.ac.in/DRTC/ardcv.html From cbisca at palermo.edu Thu Feb 23 14:25:06 2006 From: cbisca at palermo.edu (cbisca) Date: Thu, 23 Feb 2006 19:25:06 GMT Subject: [Dspace-general] translation to spanish Message-ID: <43fde1e2.118.1352.1329318351@palermo.edu> Hello: i 'm looking for a translation of dspace to spanish. who can help me?

As of DSpace version 1.3, you only need to translate everything in the 'Messages.properties' file and call the translated file 'Messages_es.properties' to translate to Spanish.
