Re: [OSCOM] Open-source digital asset management packages

Hi, Tony and others,

There are a number of other FOSS digital repositories that are designed
primarily for academic use:

D-Space ( http://www.dspace.org/ ) developed at MIT, sounds a lot like
Fedora. It supports the OAI metadata harvesting protocol.

dlbox ( http://dlbox.nudl.org/ ) "Digital Libraries in a Box"

Splash ( http://www.edusplash.net/ ), an interesting distributed P2P
solution from CANARIE in Canada. Splash is a personal repository
linked to Pond, an institutional repository and to Pool, a central
portal. Splash speaks a dialect of JXTA, as well as ECL (eduSource
Communication Layer). Gateways can crosswalk to OAI, Lionshare and
other protocols.

Disclaimer: I haven't any personal experience with any of these.

Someone stumped me recently by asking whether I knew of any open-source
DAM projects.

I've heard of fedora ( http://www.fedora.info/ ) and know that some people
use traditional CM packages (like Zope) for basic media asset
management.

Am I missing any other ones with reasonably wide support?

Many thanks,
