  1. Fedora UK&I User Group meetingUniversity of York 20 January 2009

  2. In the beginning… Two JISC-funded projects at Hull both using Fedora • RepoMMan (2005-2007) • Using a repository as part of a personal workflow • REMAP (2007-2009) • ‘Intelligent’ objects: records management and preservation

  3. The eDocs (beta) repository • Alongside RepoMMan and REMAP, the eDocs (beta) repository emerged - using Muradora:

  4. Brief encounters at OR08 • Presentation at the OR08 Fedora days (3rd & 4th April ‘08) about RepoMMan, REMAP and eDocs • Hurried conversation afterwards with Thornton Staples (Fedora Commons) that “we need to talk!” • Slightly longer conversation about the need for a dissertation repository at the University of Virginia and the idea of using some of the RepoMMan/REMAP work.

  5. A project is born • Meeting in Charlottesville, VA September ’08 • Fedora Commons • Stanford University • University of Hull • University of Virginia • Agreement to work together to produce an end-to-end, flexible, extensible, Fedora application kit • a ‘Lego’ set of services and templates

  6. Planning and specification • Further meetings in October and December • Decisions – amongst which: • Open source • Use Muradora as a starting point for a functionality specification • Use ActiveFedora (Ruby) as the basis of the browser client • This brings in Matt Zumwalt and Mediashelf LLC • Use Fedora & ActiveFedora support for content models • Abstract the client from the repository (dissemination) • Use UVA’s ‘Blacklight’ search engine • Complex and compound objects; multiple set membership • OAI-PMH support native • Three year project but with a usable intermediate product for the partners for 2009/10 academic year

  7. Timetable: 1 • 9/1/09 - First specification  • 30/1/09 - Mock-up • 31/3/09 - Prototype • Fedora 3.1 Hydra client • creation, editing, admin, access support • management of sets (collections) and display • rich search (Blacklight) • quick and dirty authZ (temporary Ruby solution) • support for ETDs but not just that • must create sustainable objects

  8. Timetable: 2 • Easter 2009 • ‘Go/no-go?’ decision for UVa & Stanford • ‘Adopt?’ (and ‘adapt’) decision for Hull • July 2009 • Production-ready system for partners that matches or exceeds functionality and security available in Muradora

  9. Timetable: 3 • 2009-2011 • Configurable, end-to-end workflows • Personal repository space • support for versioning with rollback • support for sharing/co-ownership • support for multiple, simultaneous publish • support for multiple user profiles (the same person can be involved in multiple roles, multiple projects, multiple…) and proxies • 2011 • ‘Out of the box’ Hydra (better name?) available to Fedora community
