 *DSpace Sponsorship Program Update *
In order to sustain the efforts of the DSpace Foundation, a sponsorship
program was launched a few months ago, as one component of the DSpace
Foundation fundraising initiatives. To date there have been over twenty
organizations which have made commitments to be sponsors. You can find
the current
sponsor list<http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001VyGW0KKVS2XdMKAugIbTd6ufywH58nk2sCj9Hctk_oip67etFmAVomIQd2nYG6HtVFQcqbeWSWlcEgACVZOWBZpThuYOEVpLWytaAu-E1X5bVB9byArh1rgfMRxiMva4o_jvvoNY0ZcBgo_QDtmUemiD9f2cv_9U>on
our website. For those organizations that have already contributed, we
thank you for your support.
If you are not familiar with the program and would like to become a sponsor,
please view the materials on our
website<http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001VyGW0KKVS2XYRSo-QjmyZJEKEMYie_1ITr4sZ-RLMtyqxR62AePVzswvBGQc9HPkghqy2XYM7wh-wPMw6KeXjiaDq-s8PWMuHHkVwWgICI-0rPcHPc_Jlg8rZzCv0OApL0yDUShZcPjmbs8qrMPwe2on8f0havs88nL45C-3-1s=>.
Funds from the sponsorship program will directly support the work of the
Foundation as it relates to, 1) the development of the software platform, 2)
the deployment of tools and infrastructure to better coordinate input and
process (like the use of Jira, the issue/feature tracking system), and 3)
the continued communication with the community (newsletter, meetings,
trainings, website content, etc.). If you have any questions regarding the
sponsorship program, please do not hesitate to contact Michele
Kimpton<michele at dspace.org>.

*DSpace/Fedora Collaboration*
DSpace Foundation and Fedora Commons have been working closely together over
the last month to kick off plans to develop DuraSpace. DuraSpace is a
potential service that would provide trusted and reliable asset management
in the cloud. The organizations received a joint planning
grant<http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001VyGW0KKVS2WNlR_LdTQk3HjrUK5-CdgtDKotfjOrge78BdbXj_HnpqwaXJRcu0k77gSTh3wylE8bu0jVu9AL7IlSkXe8zcMVndW9jXsjaRwDOinEBtmEmrwpSy1wWhuAckwjGFji949vmZ74Qhf1xA==>from
the Andrew
W. Mellon Foundation<http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001VyGW0KKVS2XQfwkBoFFoP9wcpYPDiqdNuZG14_d5Ji7HJe2ZPy2zsNvAFkAvOYfVNo6gMTlpV3mh7bivQQVDqMPHz0yYoFUFEtv3x1PVNZ-FqqwEkeQbuA==>to
explore the concept over the next six months. Both teams have been
meeting jointly with service providers, members of our community, and other
interested parties that are managing cultural heritage material to analyze
the need, business model, technical feasability and use cases. There will be
a joint web cast on DuraSpace in the early part of next year. For more
information on ongoing efforts and projects please visit the collaboration's
wiki<http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001VyGW0KKVS2WQJxifaptWJ6aPVlaRpSmu9gwlbIuyMOvN5nGrQ5OKfsB_fTzvo0ao9yfnIBz2Sf7CHBUAo-0t2-lQ2NknfJFXkMyWHh1nHYRYgm6GwcsqMzXo2-PnuUpAjqsBXS-XkTaak2nmZhhebh_fxLt65r1Ni0Of6jAQkSM=>

*Maintenance Support Services
*
Based on support expertise, acquired in different repository projects over
the last years,
@mire<http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001VyGW0KKVS2Wyc-nlnziFiB_8ScUM1nQKXM6HlCmgipHfyzdqTPpJQzOFshUaaI-dsLcnNQ6XFuVPxZmfw79NFC1JDEAjTOnhGu2kmhhXUv8=>launched
a set of services for Operational Repositories.
It has always been an important trend in the community that institutions
develop and maintain their own modifications to the existing DSpace source
code. Local development is an important innovation driver for DSpace, and
good modifications often make it to the core release. Unfortunately, local
developers are often required to spend their time in maintenance or
operational support.
By teaming up with @mire, local developers and institutional repository
managers can successfully outsource the bulk of maintenance and operational
support, allowing them to allocate their own time to their core
responsibilities.
@mire's maintenance services are split up into monitoring and resolving.
Both on the hardware and software level, careful monitoring can be a
pro-active way to identify possible issues, before they cause errors visible
to end users.
After issues are raised by the agent responsible for monitoring (this can be
either @mire, or institution staff), @mire's repository engineers will start
analyzing and resolving the situation.
@mire's support services contains both Technical Support and User Help desk
options. Timely response to the problems users, in-house administrators or
managers are confronted with helps to keep them enthusiastic about the
repository project. Whether these questions concern the administrator
interface, the repository's infrastructure, or any other part of the system,
@mire has the expertise to provide swift and correct answers. For more
information visit @mire's
website<http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001VyGW0KKVS2XcQz3Qf-8ehiJkia6FwC6bXDwOTEmfa-tEuAT67__Cz64CECGDHYjPkXi6t_0vmGlJOGjMYf4bP3mulhiv5sCWQercDK1iQmVT7SIyZ4Cz6LsR4RDrQnsA-uk3AsNyCzE=>

*Jira - Issue/Feature Tracker
*
The DSpace community is now using
Jira<http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001VyGW0KKVS2W5lh6XLzisxQE_h_mmbdWtpVgnkb3ZOUu8obeGqB3I45TVgBOK26hzyjySfx3NR_k8UWKXxFsWyraBwaBVnr215BVVRozspWdkpSFCMZ6U3GY2xJH6Lf5fayVIMyyBGdNZF_FE4FsLiQ==>
to
track, prioritize and guide its work. In addition to managing the DSpace
platform work, Jira also allows the community to watch specific issues,
receive updates when there are changes, as well as vote on an issue's
relevance. Although there are no guarantees when a specific item will be
addressed, the community can build a consensus on items captured in Jira and
it will enhance the visibility of that issue. Community members are
encouraged to create Jira accounts, comment on issues and participate in the
steering process. Jira participants can also subscribe to feeds, if they are
interested in tracking activity.
*Update on 1.5.2
*
The DSpace Foundation is soliciting interest in a DSpace 1.5.2 release,
tentatively slated for February 2009.  Tracking patches, bugs, and feature
requests for this release will soon begin in the DSpace 1.5 section of the
DSpace Jira<http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001VyGW0KKVS2VIFfcHKI7zJXMcYDc084EUSJA_7al9ArdtzKKj-YG_CPRAP1AHYMO9ZeBAhjA1Z4DuFRxyU_OUuywgIWC7deH8R98pUiU5GoRFv_yhUwED4mP08ncKvgyIEPZwf2LBh1E=>.
Work to review the existing patch queue on
SourceForge<http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001VyGW0KKVS2X88RIaHtKW0Txh1AVLn0vZBjTNXV0xQKLCVybNpFg8Pb0NmCq-5ishDFy3MHjvQKdIQcfQ3G_pdq-K6aVqgLeG24XHSPODjTUZrB7AF7CbqQmjOO6Bgy4bqD6ixQwTgdllW7PcIGvXAw==>for
inclusion will begin shortly.  If you are an interested party in a
DSpace 1.5 patch or feature, you're encouraged to begin using the Jira to
track and vote on items.
*Update on 2.0
*
The foundation of DSpace 2.0 development consists of a kernel/service
framework and a set of core service interfaces. The service framework for
2.0 has been completed and are based on
Spring<http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001VyGW0KKVS2VoTmFMqq_XvLJQnfI2mdyCqxg5ZKX2zPn9hFpwoR9VbBwrOLBpv3BVEvVFm0bkSqnziPqISEIyiJrcTCL9NiSc8K-kPoSX3SSLpgSTG76jGA==>and
Guice<http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001VyGW0KKVS2X-OSMPkWSjg_Ou66yHoQxrKfL_GdEsUz1DmshswGGYC0FqdBBZyVVfZO7OZp-vyRUC0_3fr1Hez1mYv31W6U27LTbOe6CR_AsPuQsVfqhHt_RTCnIf-oysXNh1MwScMYY=>,
and will permit services to be written in either paradigm.  This framework
provides the structure for future extensions and customizations of DSpace
either as modifications to the core services, replacement services or as new
ones. The core services interfaces also have concrete implementations
providing the basic DSpace 2.0 functionality. The Configuration, User,
Event, Request, Session, and SimpleStorage services have initial
implementations available. Work on the Search, License, and Repository
service interfaces and implementations is in progress.
Sitting on top of the framework and core services are the DSpace 2.0
applications.
Work to port the JSPUI and XMLUI applications to the 2.0 core is underway,
and initial versions should begin to be available in January. Customization
via modifications to the user interfaces will continue to be possible.
The DSpace 2.0 work can be followed on the

*DSpace Reaches 500 Instances
*
The DSpace platform now has over 500 instances in 60 different countries
worldwide. DSpace continues to be the most popular repository solution, with
over a third of the known repositories using the DSpace software. Users
represent a diverse group of institutions; academic institutions, research
centers, museums, non-profits, consortiums, medical centers/hospitals,
national libraries and governments. DSpace is used to store a wide variety
of information; student/faculty output, learning resources, history/art
archives, community/cultural preservation, research and government
documents. Each month there are between 10-15 new instances of DSpace. The
new ones -- 24 of them this month -- are listed on the left-hand side of
this newsletter. Check out the full list of "Who's Using
