Hacking open source code is one thing. But, how does one hack the DSpace community to:

* get your code in

* get your bug fixed

* get your feature idea built

This session will provide hints and tips on how to streamline the process of getting things done within the DSpace community. You will learn how things get done, how decisions are made, and how, with a little extra effort, you may use those processes to your (and your institution’s) advantage. While this session won’t tell you how to change the software, it’ll give you a better understanding of how, as a community member, you have a voice and an opportunity to help improve DSpace for everyone.
