What repository software developers don’t know about libraries
Simply put, just as libraries charged gaily into running repositories without understanding how the entrenched structures and reward systems of academia would hinder them, repository software developers charge gaily into development without understanding how libraries work, or how repositories work inside libraries. (Yes, yes. I know libraries are not the only venue for repository software. You can’t tell me the market research got done for those other venues either. If it had, I wouldn’t have to keep telling random people who call me on the phone that no, sorry, DSpace doesn’t have any paid vendor-support or consulting options.)
I have personally experienced having my own programming skills wildly overestimated by a DSpace committer. And I’m more technical than most in my field! By a long shot! So repository software developers cannot count on a ready-made bunch of talented, trained itch-scratching developers. Folks, I’m as close as it gets, and I’m not half good enough for your needs. How you fix that I don’t know, but you won’t fix it if you don’t first acknowledge it.
J2EE: EJB, JSP, Servlets, JSF, JSTL, JCA, JMS, JTA, JNDI, JDBC, JMX, RMI, etc.
Frameworks: Struts, Hibernate, JPA, iBATIS, JBoss AOP, Spring, JSF, AJAX, GWT, YUI, Flex/Flash, JUnit, and Jakarta common libraries.
Integration: Web Services on Axis and WebMethods; as well as the Web Service Standards such as SOAP, WSDL and UDDI.

“Roach Motel” preprint up »
11 Decembris 2007
Part of: Librariana .
This morning’s reading was the admirably honest and straightforward “ Taking EPrints to the Next Level ” report. In a field drowning in useless happytalk, it’s good to see an effort as important as EPrints stepping back and taking a good hard look at its missteps as well as its (considerable) successes.
(I am also personally chuffed because I came to one or two of their same conclusions completely independently in “Roach Motel.” I always welcome evidence that I am not in fact stupid or useless, when events conspire to paint quite a different picture. Also, I need to bug the Library Trends editors for permission to post a “Roach Motel” preprint, now that I’ve sent the draft in. Somebody kick me about that.)
There’s a lot of talk in the report about marketing, and failures thereof. Seems to me that what happened—and this insight could be extended to the entire institutional-repository premise—wasn’t so much a failure of marketing as a failure of market research , a serious and ongoing failure.
