This page provides information on what makes EdShare/Language Box/OneShare different from a standard EPrints installation.
Add to this page any packages that are relevant to EdShare/LBox.
Please see conversations on:
- UserFeedback: feedback from Debra and Sue
- Bug lists: cf. Mantis http://lslvm-mmr4.ecs.soton.ac.uk/
- OneShareWishList: discuss there new features which are not mentioned on this page already.
Contents
Core
Data Model (seb)
Tasks
- What is a bare minimum for metadata?
- What do we do with Uni divisions/hierarchy? Part of extended schema? Part of core-data?
- What do we do with the security model eg viewing/editing permissions? see below.
- Do we include or provide different subjects hierarchies (eg JACS...)? As an optional feature?
- What is the name of a 'resource'? A 'Resource' or a 'Share'?
- What are the basic data types?? On EdShare we have shares, collections, bookmarks, shoppbasket. On LBox we have resources, "resource_collection" -> need to harmonize.
Also see sections on Collections, Bookmarks.
Priority: high, core feature! Time: dev < 1 week, politics < 1 month hopefully
Dev to make decisions
User Xperience
Define a user workflow i.e.:
- How does the user interact with the repository?
- What is their path through the site for creating, managing their resources? Is it consistent?
On Edshare, this needs loads of improvements :)
Make links to all features (browsing, searching etc) intuitive/easy to find/consistent.
Priority: low Time: 1-2 dev, 1 week politics
UI Styling
Create a unique, generic style for OneShare. This should be eye-catching but generic/neutral enough (cf. a vanilla EPrints install).
This include: default citations for resources and files, site template, frontpage, <add more>.
- Also we could package the LBox & EdShare styles as optional themes?
Priority: low Time: unknown?
Security (seb)
Please view OneSharePerms.
Viewing Permissions
Use EdShare Soton's advanced viewing permissions to share with selected users, schools etc.
Previews are also included into that model i.e. you cannot see previews for a resource if you're not allowed to view/download the resource.
Editing Permissions
Cf. Viewing Permissions but for editing.
Maybe merge viewing + editing perms into a more generic ACL system.
ACLs for Viewing and Editing items?
We could create a system of ACL (Access Control List) for each share/resource and add the appropriate hooks in the code:"can_user_edit", "can_user_view".
- The idea on EdShare Soton is good (share with school, uni, x/y) but need refactoring/rewriting.
- How do we generalise this to EPrints and add the right hooks to the existing eprints code? Maybe ask TimB for advice.
Priority: low Time: 3-4 days to refactor/generalise
HTTPS
- Make all the code COMPLIANT to HTTPS :)
Defaults (seb)
We need to have default browse views, searches etc. which reflects our metadata schema and interests.
Concerns:
- Views: browse by uni hierarchy? by tag? by course code? (+meprints views)
- Searches: search our metadata fields
- Documents namedsets: add multimedia mime types to EPrints
- EPrints type: let's remove all the default types (article, book...)?
- EPrints fields: let's remove all the default -unused- eprint fields? Maybe be careful of hard-coded fields in the code.
- EPrint Worflow
- User Workflow
- LDAP: most Uni will have a LDAP server
- User roles
- more?
EdShare Soton allows users to share files -or- links and even caches the shared links.
- What do we do with this feature? Is this a customised EdShareSoton feature?
Preview
Generating previews (pat+seb)
Local Previews (pat)
- Any type of documents (doc, pdf, ppt, html...)
- Any type of multimedia files (video, audio)
Remote Previews (seb)
- Develop an interface which allows OneShare to delegate the generation of previews to another server. Talk to DaveT, TimBrody.
Priority: med-high Time: 1-2 weeks
Previews/Coverflow-like interface (pat)
This will be a part of another thread.
- Decide of a nice "player"?!
Priority: super high Time: ? months?
- What about presentations of the links?
Social Tools
MePrints Profiles
- Create a 'screencast' to present the feature
- Unroll MePrints to the live servers (EdShare, LBox)
- Possibly develop widgets for the Learning repos.
Priority: medium Time: <1 week
Commenting (SNEEP) (marcus+pat)
Add tools for commenting resources.
- Test the new SNEEP (+make sure it works on https)
Priority: low Time: 1-2 days
Collections (marcus)
Add virtual collections to EPrints. A virtual collection contains links to other resources.
Priority: low, quite mature code Time: 1-2 days
Bookmarks (marcus)
A special virtual collection available for every user. Bookmarks are persistent and can be shared to other users.
AJAX Tools exist to easily populate bookmarks from search results, summary pages etc. (cf EdShare Soton).
- Using a separate dataobj for bookmarks? This would allow more powerful features eg. "who has bookmarks share X"? Also, this would hide My Bookmarks from my list of resources.
Priority: low, quite mature code Time: 1-2 days
Folder/Shopping Basket (unassigned)
A special virtual collection that allows people to aggregate shares during their current session. This allows easy creation of collections or download of several resources in one go.
Emptied when user logs out. Cannot be shared with other users.
- Using a separate dataobj for bookmarks? This would allow more powerful features eg. "who has bookmarks share X"? Also, this would hide My Bookmarks from my list of resources.
- Do we need this?
Collections Organiser (all)
The AJAX tool to easily create, edit and manage collections.
- Need storyboards!
- We know that we need a special tool to manage resources/collections but is this the appropriate one?
- Could this replace the 'Manage Deposit' screen altogether (whether collections are enabled or not)?
Priority: need requirements Time: unknown
Embedding content (marcus)
To allow embeddable objects that present a resource (maybe looking like the coverflow tool).
- What do we expect from such a feature? Needs requirements.
Priority: low Time: <1 week
IRStats (unassigned)
Improved integration of IRStats with EPrints/OneShare.
Stats would be a popular feature?
Extra Tools (as optional packages?)
Possible optional packages:
- Anti-Virus Scanning: cf. use of Sophos on the EdShare Soton server.
- Bulk Upload & related features
- Tag cloud
- Presentation of latest additions on the frontpage
- LBox's remixed resources (cf. cloning on EP).
- <add more>
Blackboard integration (unassigned)
Single-deposit paradigm i.e. dissemination from BB to OneShare.
This will be part of a separate conversation.
Priority: high Time: unknown
