Topics[edit]
Meeting with CMS - HU[edit]
- Besprechung der Evaluationsergebnisse und Anforderungsliste (FEDORA based DAM-Systems) mit F. Kühnlenz
- CMS defined 5 possible solutions:
- Nuxeo with commercial support
- Nuxeo without commercial support
- Fascinator
- islandora
- Nuxeo first and then Islandora (migration of data would be necessary)
- Fascinator und Islandora are based on Fedora (which is a plus for CMS)
- Solution 5 sounded like the most wished. Migration from Nuxeo to Islandora should be possible thanks to the export feature in Nuxeo (based on CMEIS: Standard interface in content management systems)
- Most of the tested software don't support vocabulary and thesauri integration
- Shouldn't it be a major feature for scientific document management? --Bastien 13:31, 4 December 2012 (CET)
- Arguments against imeji:
- No version management
- No LDAP integration
- Fedora integration too lazy...
- Not enough documentation, and installation too complicated
- old software components and infrastructure (e.g. JBoss)
- persistency of metadata
Cooperation HyperImage/imeji[edit]
- Besprechung der nächsten Schritte der Zusammenarbeit
- HyperImage - eSciDoc object
- GUI Komponenten
- Current work in Hyperimage:
- export of data in xml
- GUI is currently evaluated with external usability experts. Complete GUI will be new implemented
- New implementation will take care of scalability (for technical aspects as well as for GUI issues)
- Interoperability will be carefully implemented, in order to make integration with many repos easier.
- New version of Hyperimage will focus its feature and GUI around the images linking (less effort for metadata and annotation).
- Some notes about Hyperimage
- A major problem met by Hyperimage is the licensing of images. How to protect/manage images which have been published with a license
- Hyperimage is now a commercial product. I remains opensource and free of charge (only support and hosting will be charged)
- Links in Hyperimage are typed. Possibility to build an ontology based on the links types
- Hyperimage is and was used for publishing digital publications
- A similar product like Hyperimage: salsah.org from switzerland
Common GUI issues[edit]
- Priorities and Roadmap
- imeji GUI concept has been presented by Karsten
- GUI of Hyperimage is still in evaluation phase
- A meeting between Hyperimage and imeji could be done the 21.01.2013 in Berlin
