Attributes of Useraccount

 * when are they set

outcome

 * internal attributes are set by the client
 * external attributes are re-set with every log-in (if these are e.g. transferred from LDAP)
 * escidoc-ou attribute name is configurable in the properties

Transfer Ownership

 * see Issue INFR-800 (https://www.escidoc.org/jira/browse/INFR-800)
 * status on Colab page Transfer ownership
 * Context roles modified, see Context administrator roles
 * Status

Outcome

 * the created-by property will be renamed to "owner" property (to have clear semantics)
 * each Item/Container resource version has last-modified-by property (which actually gives information which user created that particular version of a resource )
 * future use-cases: deposit-on-behalf-on
 * would require separate service (e.g. SWORD Server API) and separate role (e.g. user A grants deposit-on-behalf rights to user B for som/all of his contexts)

event types

 * See eSciDoc Version History Event Type and discussion.

Outcome
For every service method of the eSciDoc Infrastructure exist an event type specified as PURL starting with http://purl.org/escidoc/infrastructure/event-type/ followed by a string related to the name of the service method. There is no differentiation between the resources of the eSciDoc Infrastructure. That means e.g. there is neither an event type for Item.update nor for Container.update but just one event type for update.
