[Dspace-general] Presentation

[HAIDER]

Hello,

I need a power point presentation for some idea, so that I can make a
presentation for my university management for the implementation of Dspace
in our university. I'll be grateful to you.

Sincerely Yours,

Hi,

I think separating aspects is a good idea, especially if they communicate
through interfaces that don't change much between DSpace versions. In that
way, one could plug in different behaviors from different projects, and not
get headaches from version updates.

I will try to make time for writing a more detailed explanation in wiki. I
will send a message to dspace-tech when it's done.

Cheers,

Pasi
