The only way I can think of doing this is to make use of the ASpace REST APIs to get the Resource JSON records and then attach the archival objects created from the information from the csv file to this record and do an update. If you are familiar with the ASpace JSON schema/REST API, and can do some programing (in any language that can make REST calls) then it should only be a moderate level of effort to do this.

Interesting stuff, Patrick. I haven't had a chance to test out the new release candidate, but I hope to do that later this week.

You can group the container elements if you rely on the @label attribute, which *should* only occur at the beginning of each container group. This practice depends on the EAD always being serialized in the correct document order, however, so this process is definitely not as fool proof as using the @id and @parent attributes, which follows the AT model (and the examples in the EAD 2002 tag library). I didn't think about using @label earlier, but I later realized that that's how the ArchivesSpace XSLT style sheets performs the container grouping (here's a snippet from one of those style sheets: ). I'd certainly not prefer to rely upon the document order, though, if at all possible. Plus, IDs are much cooler! All of that said, even though the AT could export these container groups correctly, you could not import those groups back into the AT database -- which, once again, essentially negated the option to assign multiple instances to a single level of description if you ever needed to export and re-import your data! I hope that ArchivesSpace will also fix this glaring issue, since I would definitely like to encourage the local practice of assigning multiple instances to a single level of description when appropriate (rather than describing things in multiple places in the finding aid, if the description really doesn't warrant that duplication).

When I've been going back to edit the file-level components in ArchivesSpace--information what that was entered via Rapid Data Entry--after I edit the component and save it, it automatically adds a Container Type 3 with "Box" label, which I don't want. My co-worker is having this issue as well. Are others experiencing this, and is this a known bug?

Interesting stuff, Patrick. I haven't had a chance to test out the new release candidate, but I hope to do that later this week. I should note, though, that I was somewhat mistaken in my previous comment when I said that there was no way to group instances any longer. You can group the container elements if you rely on the @label attribute, which *should* only occur at the beginning of each container group. This practice depends on the EAD always being serialized in the correct document order, however, so this process is definitely not as fool proof as using the @id and @parent attributes, which follows the AT model (and the examples in the EAD 2002 tag library). I didn't think about using @label earlier, but I later realized that that's how the ArchivesSpace XSLT style sheets performs the container grouping (here's a snippet from one of those style sheets: ). I'd certainly not prefer to rely upon the document order, though, if at all possible. Plus, IDs are much cooler! All of that said, even though the AT could export these container groups correctly, you could not import those groups back into the AT database -- which, once again, essentially negated the option to assign multiple instances to a single level of description if you ever needed to export and re-import your data! I hope that ArchivesSpace will also fix this glaring issue, since I would definitely like to encourage the local practice of assigning multiple instances to a single level of description when appropriate (rather than describing things in multiple places in the finding aid, if the description really doesn't warrant that duplication).

After that version is released, we will turn our attention immediately to planning the next release, which will no doubt be greatly informed by the very useful report received recently from Harvard University and the forthcoming report promised from UIUC. Let me also take this opportunity to notify the ArchivesSpace members that the contract for Nathan Stevens, the migration specialist, has been extended for 12 months beginning Oct. 1, 2014. Under this new contract, Nathan will continue to be responsible for supporting migrations of data from Archon and Archivists' Toolkit instances, but he will also start exploring the building new pathways for migrating data into ArchivesSpace from other sources. In addition, Nathan will also be responsible for working with the TAC migration sub group to refine and extend options for importing / exporting data formats such as EAC, EAD, MARCXML, etc. and with the UAC reports sub group to refine the new reports module to be included in the next release and to populate it with default reports. In addition to the extension of the migration specialist's contract, the ArchivesSpace program will also be contracting a developer for 12 months to assist the lead developer Chris Fitzpatrick with fixing bugs and adding new features. Finally, we will also be contracting a half-time program assistant for 12 months to provide support to various aspects of the ArchivesSpace program, but especially to member enrollment and preparing user documentation, I hope you will all agree that these are important additions to the ArchivesSpace Program staff and will help tremendously to expedite the development of the application, as well as to meet better the needs of the growing membership. Thank you all for your continuing interest and contributions. Best, Brad W. Bradley D.

After that version is released, we will turn our attention immediately to planning the next release, which will no doubt be greatly informed by the very useful report received recently from Harvard University and the forthcoming report promised from UIUC. Let me also take this opportunity to notify the ArchivesSpace members that the contract for Nathan Stevens, the migration specialist, has been extended for 12 months beginning Oct. 1, 2014. Under this new contract, Nathan will continue to be responsible for supporting migrations of data from Archon and Archivists? Toolkit instances, but he will also start exploring the building new pathways for migrating data into ArchivesSpace from other sources. In addition, Nathan will also be responsible for working with the TAC migration sub group to refine and extend options for importing / exporting data formats such as EAC, EAD, MARCXML, etc. and with the UAC reports sub group to refine the new reports module to be included in the next release and to populate it with default reports. In addition to the extension of the migration specialist?s contract, the ArchivesSpace program will also be contracting a developer for 12 months to assist the lead developer Chris Fitzpatrick with fixing bugs and adding new features. Finally, we will also be contracting a half-time program assistant for 12 months to provide support to various aspects of the ArchivesSpace program, but especially to member enrollment and preparing user documentation, I hope you will all agree that these are important additions to the ArchivesSpace Program staff and will help tremendously to expedite the development of the application, as well as to meet better the needs of the growing membership.

We're implementing ArchivesSpace "from scratch" here at UNLV Special Collections, importing EAD, CSV, and also entering some legacy data by hand. (We had no collection management system in place previously.) I am looking for folks interested in putting together a Western Roundup session about the strategies you're using to implement ArchivesSpace. Ideally, it would be nice to have a speaker on migrating from Archivists' Toolkit and one speaking about migrating from Archon to add to the perspective of implementing from scratch, but I am open to a variety of possibilities. If there are a few people interested, we can do a traditional session. If there are a number of people interested, we could do a lightning session.

After that version is released, we will turn our attention immediately to planning the next release, which will no doubt be greatly informed by the very useful report received recently from Harvard University and the forthcoming report promised from UIUC. Let me also take this opportunity to notify the ArchivesSpace members that the contract for Nathan Stevens, the migration specialist, has been extended for 12 months beginning Oct. 1, 2014. Under this new contract, Nathan will continue to be responsible for supporting migrations of data from Archon and Archivists? Toolkit instances, but he will also start exploring the building new pathways for migrating data into ArchivesSpace from other sources. In addition, Nathan will also be responsible for working with the TAC migration sub group to refine and extend options for importing / exporting data formats such as EAC, EAD, MARCXML, etc. and with the UAC reports sub group to refine the new reports module to be included in the next release and to populate it with default reports. In addition to the extension of the migration specialist?s contract, the ArchivesSpace program will also be contracting a developer for 12 months to assist the lead developer Chris Fitzpatrick with fixing bugs and adding new features. Finally, we will also be contracting a half-time program assistant for 12 months to provide support to various aspects of the ArchivesSpace program, but especially to member enrollment and preparing user documentation, I hope you will all agree that these are important additions to the ArchivesSpace Program staff and will help tremendously to expedite the development of the application, as well as to meet better the needs of the growing membership.

After that version is released, we will turn our attention immediately to planning the next release, which will no doubt be greatly informed by the very useful report received recently from Harvard University and the forthcoming report promised from UIUC. Let me also take this opportunity to notify the ArchivesSpace members that the contract for Nathan Stevens, the migration specialist, has been extended for 12 months beginning Oct. 1, 2014. Under this new contract, Nathan will continue to be responsible for supporting migrations of data from Archon and Archivists? Toolkit instances, but he will also start exploring the building new pathways for migrating data into ArchivesSpace from other sources. In addition, Nathan will also be responsible for working with the TAC migration sub group to refine and extend options for importing / exporting data formats such as EAC, EAD, MARCXML, etc. and with the UAC reports sub group to refine the new reports module to be included in the next release and to populate it with default reports. In addition to the extension of the migration specialist?s contract, the ArchivesSpace program will also be contracting a developer for 12 months to assist the lead developer Chris Fitzpatrick with fixing bugs and adding new features. Finally, we will also be contracting a half-time program assistant for 12 months to provide support to various aspects of the ArchivesSpace program, but especially to member enrollment and preparing user documentation, I hope you will all agree that these are important additions to the ArchivesSpace Program staff and will help tremendously to expedite the development of the application, as well as to meet better the needs of the growing membership. Thank you all for your continuing interest and contributions. Best, Brad W. Bradley D.

I could try adding a thrid slash which may solve this, but if it doesn't, there really isn't much that can be done on the migration tool side until this requirements changes in ASpace. Subdivisions types for Subjects and Name are required in the AT (You cannot save a record through the AT interface if those types are not selected). The only way I know of they can be incorrect, or are missing, is when data is ingested directly into the AT database which the migration tool cannot account for. As such, entering correct values for these sub types must done through the AT backend database directly, and not through the migration tool.

As we are assessing how we will use ArchivesSpace we are considering ways to denote the digital material in our collections. I see two, maybe three ways forward. I'll list them here and I would love to hear your responses and learn from what others have already tried. One. For things that are actually digital objects like a completely digital book, an access copy PDF of some material, etc. I plan to use the Digital Object module. This would be a call out to specific items within collections (Resources). They may be linked to an access system that provides ready access or they may point to a local server from which reference staff can select a copy to make available locally. [This is an option that I plan to implement - basically looking for other thoughts on this but not to get rid of this.] Two. For bulk digital material, I'd like to use an Instance that is a bucket for undistinguished, aggregate digital material. The difference here is that they are not discrete by title or individual object. We're thinking about using the Instance to add this into the Finding Aid [Faculty Policy Committee, Meeting Minutes, 2013-2014. Digital.] Three. In addition to #2, I'm thinking about adding a Digital Object for the AIP that is created for the aggregate material and would like to link this DO (because it allows for the extra metadata I want to capture in AS) to the Instance. If you have done this or are currently modeling how to do this, please let me know. Thanks! Kari R.

But just for some clarification, for mixed content editing, archivesspace uses codemirror ( http://codemirror.net ) which is a popular in-browser "code editor". I'd never used it before, but I have to say it's pretty good (at least as good as ACE, which is it's chief competitor ) The problem is that a default WYSIWYG won't work for EAD editing, as we are wanting to edit content in a way that results in EAD valid markup, not HTML valid markup. <emph render="bold"> or <name> or <xlink:href ... > means nothing to a browser and <span class="bold"> or <a href="http://archive.org"<http://archive.org>> is invalid on EAD export. So, the editor has to be a modified XML editor that works with our schema's requirements. So, since Aspace is a web app , we have to translate the markup from EAD into HTML as well as ensure ( or try our best ) that user generated content will result in good EAD markup. It's actually kind of tricky, since the web framework assumes your only concerned with html validation ( since that's what 99.9% of the world is concerned with...) Using a markup language ( like EAD ) as your data model presents a lot of challenges for software development. But we have focused recently on a lot of fixes for mixed content, which I hope will resolve a lot of the pain points... Best, fitz.

I have always been skeptical of having a purpose built editor for this editing and storing EAD or formatting in the DB. Using the wrap-in-tage feature is very difficult in our staff testing, and there seem to be a huge number of support requests which is taking time away from more important (IMHO) issues. As a design consideration, open source WYSIWYG editors such as ckeditor seem like a much a better way to accomplish what users want to accomplish. We would also benefit from a broader community that has already hashed out most of the difficult design issues for formatting markup, and we could extend this library in other ways, for example to include the sematic markup in a more usable interface than the wrap in tag editor. http://ckeditor.com/ I am not saying this is the 'solution' the problem, but it does seem to me that something is fundamentally broken at an architecture level here, and we should evaluate alternate strategies, given the large number or bugs and feature requests related to wrap-in-tag editor.

Not a solution, just an elimination of the problem. Given that XML is permitted within many elements for which AS doesn't provide support for mixed content, I'd say that it seems like an oversight in the design, not a bug per se, but a missing feature that would better support a fairly common practice (or a legacy practice that persists in the data).

I'm a new user of ArchivesSpace, and my use of CONTENTdm is limited to having created about 15 records, so I may not be the best person to answer this. But here goes . . . I think they are very different tools and I would use them for different jobs. Depending on what your institution wants to do, you might actually need both. ArchivesSpace is designed to handle hierarchical relationships, so it is very good for showing a collection with series, subseries, boxes, folders, and individual items all described to whatever level of detail is needed. CONTENTdm seems to have a very flat structure to me. It might be difficult (maybe not impossible) to show the hierarchical relationships between the different pieces of a compound object. ArchivesSpace follows EAD metadata structure and DACS content rules. CONTENTdm follows Dublin Core metadata structure. For archival finding aids, I would want to use ArchivesSpace, and I wouldn't even consider CONTENTdm. ArchivesSpace is great for finding aids describing organizational records, personal papers, and similar mixed collections, especially if these collections have not yet been fully digitized. ArchivesSpace can also track accessions, events, preservation actions and other "staff side" things. To my knowledge, CONTENTdm can't really do that. But if I wanted to create a digital library of images without any particular hierarchy, then CONTENTdm might be a good choice. If I wanted to be able to include my digital library within a larger digital library like DPLA or some other regional federated digital library, then I would definitely choose CONTENTdm. tl;dr version: ArchivesSpace for finding aids, but CONTENTdm for digital libraries of images. Keep in mind my limited experience with these two tools. I hope others jump in with better answers.

I'm a new user of ArchivesSpace, and my use of CONTENTdm is limited to having created about 15 records, so I may not be the best person to answer this. But here goes . . . I think they are very different tools and I would use them for different jobs. Depending on what your institution wants to do, you might actually need both. ArchivesSpace is designed to handle hierarchical relationships, so it is very good for showing a collection with series, subseries, boxes, folders, and individual items all described to whatever level of detail is needed. CONTENTdm seems to have a very flat structure to me. It might be difficult (maybe not impossible) to show the hierarchical relationships between the different pieces of a compound object. ArchivesSpace follows EAD metadata structure and DACS content rules. CONTENTdm follows Dublin Core metadata structure. For archival finding aids, I would want to use ArchivesSpace, and I wouldn't even consider CONTENTdm. ArchivesSpace is great for finding aids describing organizational records, personal papers, and similar mixed collections, especially if these collections have not yet been fully digitized. ArchivesSpace can also track accessions, events, preservation actions and other "staff side" things. To my knowledge, CONTENTdm can't really do that. But if I wanted to create a digital library of images without any particular hierarchy, then CONTENTdm might be a good choice. If I wanted to be able to include my digital library within a larger digital library like DPLA or some other regional federated digital library, then I would definitely choose CONTENTdm. tl;dr version: ArchivesSpace for finding aids, but CONTENTdm for digital libraries of images. Keep in mind my limited experience with these two tools. I hope others jump in with better answers.

I used v1.0.9.1 (05-29-2014) of the migrator to complete our migration on June 6 and I went into labor on June 12. We went in with eyes wide open and knew there would be outstanding issues with our migration that we'd have to address at a later date, but, luckily, as a small institution (we only had 6 finding aids when I arrived in late 2012) data correction after the fact is not out of the question. All of the instances that lost restriction notes are part of larger partially processed/in-process collections that are not yet live and still seeing regular tweaking by our students and staff. TLDR version: It's ALWAYS best to ensure a complete and accurate migration and avoid touchups after the fact, but sometimes you have to do things that are not ideal in order to accomplish a larger goal in this messy world we live in. I would fully suspect that this issue has been addressed in later iterations of the migrator, but cannot comment on that first hand.

Please see the documention for information on how to upgrade your ArchivesSpace installs. This release includes upgrading Rails to 3.2.19, which addresses another important security patch. It is recommended that users update ArchivesSpace in order to apply this patch. This release includes work contributed by Yale University and carried out by Hudson Molongo . This includes a number of UI enhancements that are generously being passed back to the ASpace community. Also included in this release is an enhanced reporting module which will allow users to compose their own custom reports. There will be more information on how to utilize this feature in the coming days. Thanks to all the volunteers on the ArchivesSpace User Advisory and Technical Advisory Committees, who have been a vital keeping the whole thing on track. There were also many bug fixes, including many done in the area of EAD import and export. Please see the release page for a listing of all the features, bugs, etc for this release. Let us know if you have any questions, comments, or concerns! Regards, Chris Fitzpatrick.

The @role attribute in s is not exported. While not a huge issue at this moment, serving up DAOs of different roles for different types of objects may become an issue in the future. 2. The finding aid filing title is not exported. We use these extensively in our display, and we think it?s important to have finding aid titles easily sortable by the creators? last names. We know 1.1.0 just came out today, but we wanted to get these reported and hopefully into Pivotal Tracker as soon as possible.

For instance, our digitized materials are often marked with a Use Statement of Service-Edited. In the future, when we start ingesting more born digital materials, these use statements will be changing because the DAOs won?t only describe service copies. We can?t say exactly how we are going to use it, but if possible, we?d like it included.

The @role attribute in s is not exported. While not a huge issue at this moment, serving up DAOs of different roles for different types of objects may become an issue in the future. 2. The finding aid filing title is not exported. We use these extensively in our display, and we think it?s important to have finding aid titles easily sortable by the creators? last names. We know 1.1.0 just came out today, but we wanted to get these reported and hopefully into Pivotal Tracker as soon as possible.

Yes, finding aid title is now exporting as expected (thank goodness!). I haven't run a test with a record containing a finding aid note yet, but suspect it is also corrected. Having back is a HUGE weight off for us as we have some complicated restriction notes for our institutional records. We've never had cause to use subtitle, so I can't report how the migrator handles that info. The only data we lost with the AT-to-AS migrator was item-level (NOT collection level) restriction notes. Our student workers will be busily copy/pasting in the coming months... Lora Sent from my iPhone On Oct 20, 2014, at 9:01 AM, "Custer, Mark" > wrote: I reported this issue earlier in the year.

If that field was used in the AT, I can confirm that the subtitle is still migrated over to ArchivesSpace since the AT-to-ASpace migration tool will append that value to the finding aid title field. I haven?t tested ASpace?s EAD importer to confirm that it does the same, though.

The one pesky outstanding issue that does not appear to be resolved is that the contents of "Finding Aid Date" are still not being exported at all, let alone into where we'd expect to find it. Our stylesheets draw on this date to generate an authorship statement along the lines of "Finding aid prepared by , ." Since the finding aid date is not ending up anywhere in the exported XML we're left with "Finding aid prepared by John Smith, ." Minor inconvenience, but annoying. On the other hand, I'm pleased to report that other failure to export issues we've had with things like are now working beautifully. Are others finding that is not exporting? Is this a known bug?

While I find it easy enough to create a workflow using these mods on the surface I am curious what the relational aspect is with the rest of the record. For example, the "Instance" mod seems clear enough and directly incorporated within the resource it belongs to, whereas the DO appears to be an independent entity easily associated with multiple resources/records. However, an Instance can just as easily be a DO and if you are describing a collection which contains a DO why is it treated as a separate entity when an Instance is clearly not? Again, it comes down to the relational aspect of these mods to the rest of the record, resource and repository. This would be much clearer if AS had been released with a report module from the beginning or a means to see more clearly the relationship and organizational structure of the fields, Of course I may have missed the documentation that explains all this. With that said... As it stands right now and from what I can make of AS, your first point seems to perfectly sensibly. I am assuming these distinct DOs are part of a larger resource and then will be linked to them within the resource record. Second, the "bulk digital material", does that mean you will not be ingesting them into a digital repository? Are they remaining on the medium as you found them? Or do you mean you will describe the bulk objects but then create a separate digital object for the actual instance (file/DO) which exists on the medium? Third, Linking the AIP as the Do may be premature, It is possible that once AS is established you will find that the systems available for creating the AIPS and DIPS will make available a module for AS for just this purpose. Might take a look at BitCurator or Archivematica who I think may be looking at that prospect. And if they are not, they should be. If anything it would be the DIP that would be incorporated as the DO especially if you plan to use the public interface of AS. Truly, the best scenario would be an AIP and a DIP module with the "publishing" option. That would certainly tie in the OASIS model. Just my thoughts as I too am trying to reason out the workflow. I would like to see more granular control over options for describing the material. Please let keep me posted on what you figure out. best, [cid:image001.jpg at 01CFEDDE.77FE2260] [signature-96] Sarit Hand Multimedia Archivist AP Corporate Archives shand at ap.org www.ap.org 450 West 33rd Street New York, NY 10001 T 212.621.7035 F 212.621.1723 Hello collective wisdom of digital archivists using ArchivesSpace. As we are assessing how we will use ArchivesSpace we are considering ways to denote the digital material in our collections. I see two, maybe three ways forward. I'll list them here and I would love to hear your responses and learn from what others have already tried. One. For things that are actually digital objects like a completely digital book, an access copy PDF of some material, etc. I plan to use the Digital Object module. This would be a call out to specific items within collections (Resources). They may be linked to an access system that provides ready access or they may point to a local server from which reference staff can select a copy to make available locally. [This is an option that I plan to implement - basically looking for other thoughts on this but not to get rid of this.] Two. For bulk digital material, I'd like to use an Instance that is a bucket for undistinguished, aggregate digital material. The difference here is that they are not discrete by title or individual object. We're thinking about using the Instance to add this into the Finding Aid [Faculty Policy Committee, Meeting Minutes, 2013-2014. Digital.] Three. In addition to #2, I'm thinking about adding a Digital Object for the AIP that is created for the aggregate material and would like to link this DO (because it allows for the extra metadata I want to capture in AS) to the Instance. If you have done this or are currently modeling how to do this, please let me know. Thanks! Kari R.

Hi Katherine, The ASpace team is currently working on a general purpose import tool (https://github.com/ns96/ASpaceMigrator) which should make your data migration task easier. If you would like to be a beta tester of this program let me know and we can discuss the details.

Can data be imported into both the Accession record and the Resource and other records? We have fields, for instance for location, that ArchivesSpace has only in the Resource record, but we don?t actually have separate resource records?all the information is in the accessions database (or in separate Word description documents, which we can deal with later). What we?re thinking of doing is importing the location information into a user-defined field, which I hope we will later be able to map to the location field in the Resource record. I see that we need to create the locations to be linked records?which will work fine later, and we can use the location info in the user-defined field to assign the correct locations. Is there a quicker way of importing all the locations to the proper fields?

(https://github.com/archivesspace/at-migration/releases/tag/v1.1.0) This release is: 1. Designed to work with both v1.0.9 and v1.1.0 of ASpace 2. Fixes bug in which Windows file URIs in External Documents were not being migrated properly. 3. Supports options for specifying how Resource Components refids are transferred. valid options are: -refid_original -- Copy the original refid from the AT. -refid_unique -- Copy the the original refid and adds a String to make them unique (refid_abc). This is the default option since a few Resource records may have duplicate refids for resource components and will fail to copy. -refid_none -- Do not copy any refid, instead allow ArchivesSpace to assign one. If you are using the refid plug-in, then use this option. -- Nathan Stevens Programmer/Analyst Digital Library Technology Services New York University 1212-998-2653 ns96 at nyu.edu -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

The resource record opens up completely fine, and I can use the same search string in the filter by text box in the browse resources functionality without any issue. It seems to be an isolated issue with just this specific string in the search all records option.

The problem is that the jasper reports module require a library that compiles the Jasper jrxml files, which is does with a library called jdt-compiler-3.1.1.jar, which does not run on Java 8. So, you'll know you have a problem right off the bat, as the application will not launch. This does not affect users running earlier versions of java. If you want to run Java 8, you must remove this jdt-compiler-3.1.1.jar file from you lib directory AND you much be using the Java 8 JDK ( not simply the JRE), since this includes some libraries Jasper falls back on to compile reports. I'm looking into adding a version of the jdt-compiler that is Java 8 friendly. I'm also adding more test to our Jenkins CI test server to test different java versions to ensure we don't run into this again. Sorry about any inconvenience. Let me know if you have any questions...

If you're interested - and especially if you want to edit this list - I put it up in Google docs: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1hTV08OK5nSqVINd0QYfeWBLsQvCU3fYsynQsqTfk1_k/edit?usp=sharing I already knew that there would be some overlap between ASpace members and Aeon subscribers, for instance, but after compiling the list, I know now that there are 24 institutions that fit into this category (according to the ASpace and Aeon websites, at least).

I would be very happy to take feedback or answer any questions about this report, and to pass comments back to UAC/TAC. The report will be considered along with other inputs for the community-driven prioritization and development process. Thanks, Chris Prom University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Begin forwarded message: > > Hi everyone, > > I've attached to this message an 'issues report' that the University of Illinois has developed as part of our initial initial ASpace implementation assessment. The report highlights areas of the interface which we believe must be significantly improved prior to our implementation of ASpace as a production system. The report can also be seen as a 'gap analysis' of sorts for Archon/ASpace. I would like to note that this assessment was completed with version 1.0.9, so it is possible some of the issues were addressed with the latest release, which we have not yet tested. > > At this time, I'd like to ask that the UAC and TAC consider this report along with other inputs for its various subgroups; we feel significant improvements to the UI are possible and would benefit the entire community. Community driven UI refinement is something we hope to participate in over the next year, as our implementation moves forward with a target 'production' date of Jan 2016. > > Thanks, > > Chris Prom > University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign > > -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
