workflows related to JIRA. But in the way JIRA has been used for the last couple years, both of the issues Steve points to in his message are resolved, as are any other issues with an “Accepted” status. “Accepted” in our past/present usage means code has been
delivered and tested that fixes the issue, or that something else has happened that indicates this issue has reached the end of the line. (If what has happened is more complex than just that it got fixed, there is usually a comment trail on the issue that
gives an indication.) We have a number of resources for understanding our current use of JIRA on the wiki at
<a href="https://archivesspace.atlassian.net/wiki/display/ADC/JIRA+Resources">https://archivesspace.atlassian.net/wiki/display/ADC/JIRA+Resources</a>. As the process evolves over the coming months with the new crew in place, we’ll update these, but they do
reflect how things have worked to now.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">We’ve heard feedback across the board that people find our use of JIRA and its relationship to Github confusing, and that it’s difficult for people to determine
if an issue has been reported and what’s going on with it once it has been. Improving this experience is very high on our priority list and we very much welcome suggestions. As Steve says, there’s been a changing of the guard and that provides an opportunity
for us to reexamine various processes and policies and work with all of you to improve them.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

whether there are still issues often does require examination of the specific file being imported and analyzing whether it’s actually something about the encoding in the file or particular data that is presenting a problem. If the encoding and data look OK,
then we need to dig deeper, which many on this list are really expert at doing, as we’ve seen!)<o:p></o:p></span></p>

EAD files (though to be fair, I see this in MARC records as well; confusion between MARC8, ISO8859-1, and codepage 1252). The simply solution (and this would maintain your characters) would be to convert the character set to UTF8. Otherwise, even if you
held on to these values – they wouldn’t display in any form that you could read; and in fact, that is what the error message is trying to tell you. That as a UTF8 value, your data is going to be gibberish, regardless of if you keep it or not.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">At UNLV Special Collections, we've been working on cleaning up our enumeration values because in many cases there were duplicates caused by imports (i.e value: linear_feet vs value: Linear feet vs Linear Feet). We wanted to stick as close
as possible to ArchivesSpace standards and decided to make our enumeration values all lowercase seperated by an underscore and then merge any records with incorrect enumerations into that correct value (i.e value: linear Feet into linear_feet). We also have
some custom enumerations such as: value: oversized_box, translation: Oversized Box; digital_file; Digital File<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>

<div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">After we had that set up correctly, we had some findings and was wondering if anyone has experienced the same things or had a standard we could use. <o:p></o:p></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">1. When generating PDFs and EADs the enumeration values that were custom (such as the oversized_box) would come out as machine readable oversized_box instead of using our local en.yml value (located in the local plugin).<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"> This was something I found in the EAD serializer (<a href="https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/blob/master/backend/app/exporters/serializers/ead.rb#L490" target="_blank"><span style="color:purple">https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/blob/master/backend/app/exporters/serializers/ead.rb#L490</span></a>) and
was able to create a temporary solution of generating it , but required altering the enumeration instead of referencing our file. I thought i'd point it out because anyone creating custom enumerations even with a translation in an en.yml file would not see
their change reflected in the EAD export. (I've attached an image reflecting this) Anyone experience this?<o:p></o:p></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">2. Another example of this case was in the container "type" attribute. Before something like Oversized Box would be export to EAD as is because that was it's value in the enumeration. After we changed the value correctly to oversized_box,
it would export to the EAD container "type" as is and translate to the PDF as well. With some XSLT manipulation I was able to get it to show up as oversized box (shown in attachments). I've looked through <a href="https://www.loc.gov/ead/tglib/elements/container.html" target="_blank"><span style="color:purple">https://www.loc.gov/ead/tglib/elements/container.html</span></a><span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>and

<p class="MsoNormal">Should attributes be machine readable (i.e oversized_box), human readable (Oversized Box), or does it even matter? Of course, exporting it as Oversized Box would be easiest to translate a user friendly version to the user. <o:p></o:p></p>
