Add Thesis dc Field to OAI Output
Add the <dc:type>Thesis</type> to identify theses.
Theses are frequently searched for by our Research Repository users and this would make them more discoverable.
Thank you

Removing the "accepted" status so that institution can continue voting as agreed with the PWG.

Add ability for researcher approval before assets post to individual profiles
We have researchers who publish in areas which can be controversial such as animal research or abortion.
These researchers do not display all of their publications on their web profiles.
We would like the ability to set individual researchers so each asset had to be approved by the researcher before it displayed in their individual research portal.
We realize researchers can hide information, but we want to ensure that some information is not published to web profiles without approval.

Add OAI output in ETD-MS format
We would like to have an output in ETD-MS format so that we may continue to submit our ETDs to the Networked Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations. White metadata may be submitted in oaidc OR oaidc+oaietdms, oaidc lacks many important fields for etds so our contributions to this global database would be better in etd-ms format. See http://www.ndltd.org/resources/manage-etds/help-build-global-etd-search and http://www.ndltd.org/standards/metadata

Ability to reorder fields with multiple lines via drag and drop in back end and on profile
We would like to see drag and drop functionality implemented across all fields in both the repository and the portal that have mutlitple lines, e.g. relationaships on assets so that relationships can be displayed in desired order. Links on the profile page. Education. Research topics and keywords. Related content on the asset.
Currently many of theses fields display in the order they are entered and some display in a random undetermined order. If links need to be reordered they have to be deleted and re-added. This is a duplciaiton of effort.

As has been noted drag and drop is available in many places. We have no immediate plans to add more. Removing the Planned status so institutions can continue voting for this. Please indicate where it is most missing.
