  9. 3-5 Year Vision

  10. May meeting of 10 stakeholder inst. Came out of March DuraSpace Summit Goal: Common 3-5 year vision Vision is longer term (not for 4.0) Opportunity to reinvigorate, refresh use cases & needs after 10 years Hope to establish community-led project Similar to Fedora Futures / Fedora 4 3-5 Year Vision Mtg http://duraspace.org/meeting-report-3-5-year-dspace-vision

  11. 3-5 Year Vision (Draft) DSpace will: • Focus on IR fundamentals, modern use cases • Be lean & flexible • Include “core IR” functionality which can be extended • Be designed to integrate well • Support low-cost, hosted solutions

  12. 1. Focus on IR “Institutional Repository” at heart • Core functionality = current & anticipated IR use cases • Not same use cases as 10 yrs ago • Anything Non-Core = implement via (third-party) plugins

  13. 2. Lean & Flexible Do NOT attempt to do or be everything • Instead: lean, focused system • But, support third-party plugins

  14. 3. Core IR Use Cases What is “out-of-the-box” vs What may be a third-party plugin • We need to determine what these core use cases are, together • Retain “out-of-the-box” IR goal

  15. 4. Designed to Integrate Standalone system = thing of the past • Provide integration points for others to build against (APIs, etc) • Build our own integrations with external systems / services

  16. 5. Support low-cost/hosted Web-based Configuration & Setup • Easy to setup / install whether on your local server or hosted • Most options / configs should be customizable via a web UI

  17. A Possible Vision? DSpace as a “WordPress-like” IR? • Easy to install (5 min) / “just works” • Diverse third-party plugins / themes • Manage most everything from web UI (including plugins / themes) • Large, active support community http://tinyurl.com/dspace-2013-vision

  18. Next Steps • Panel Q&A / discussion at 3:45pm • Use Cases / feedback via email / wiki • Collaborate with Tech Team on a Technical RoadMap / Plan • Work towards establishing a community project • Governance • Locate developers / funding http://tinyurl.com/dspace-2013-vision
