During our presentation at #OpenRepos2025 somebody asked about how do we handle saying no to a feature or even gauging the size and effort that it will take to implement a new feature.

Estimating in software is really hard, I even alluded to this XKCD comic about it: https://xkcd.com/1425/

The crux of my answer was: don't answer on your own, instead bring the question to the development team and let us review it. Some things that look easy are very hard to implement and the reverse it's true.

My first time at Open Repositories was lovely. My talk "Integrating Digital Repositories and Learning Management Systems Using EduLink" seemed to go really well. I have *so* many threads I need to pull on! #openrepos2025

Great point by Sarah Barsness:

“Accessibility is a process. Technical standards change, user needs change, available tools change. Laws and policies serve as a starting point.”

🎤 Live from #OpenRepos2025 in Chicago!

Julien Sicot and Jorge Rodrigues de Matos are presenting the recent evolution of EPFL’s institutional repository - Infoscience, including new automation features for data import.

Great to see our work shared and discussed with the international Open Science community!

Loved the tour of the Automated Retrieval System at the University of Chicago. The “stacks” are 5 story high and they use a robot to store and retrieve the materials. Pretty awesome. #OpenRepos2025

I’m very happy to be at #OpenRepos2025 in #Chicago. While technology helps to enable remote collaboration, meetings face to face deepens relationships and trust, invite new ideas to emerge and have a magic that can’t be replaced by video calls. Thanks to all people who worked hard to make this conference happen and to all who traveled around the globe to foster #repositories, #sharing of #knowledge and #openSource. For the #DSpace community Open Repositories is an important annual event.
