Status: September 2024

• The CAFE team is working on an updated version of the DMSP, which will be linked in an outreach to recommend NIH and P20 researchers deposit data into the CAFE collection on the Harvard Dataverse Repository.
• The CAFE team is defining what information README files should contain for CAFE datasets.
• The team is identifying metadata fields they would like 'hidden' on datasets in the CAFE collection, to reduce confusion on some duplicated fields (due to custom metadata blocks).
• Meetings with RAPID and DesignSafe have established interest in harvesting. Another meeting is set for the beginning of November to continue these conversations.

Status: October 2024

• Note: small metadata fix is in progress to improve DDI metadata exports: File description metadata of ingested files are not in the DDI exported metadata dataverse#5051
• The Dataverse team met on 2024/10/15 to review, discuss, and decide next steps for several open development issues

DesignSafe

• CAFE project team with DesignSafe to discuss dataset harvesting.
• A DesignSafe metadata mapping table was created

Curation

• Follow-up meeting held with RAPID and DesignSafe, metadata passed through DataCite has been mapped to fields in CAFE, meeting will be held in December to work on getting additional metadata from DesignSafe passed to DataCite
• Completed DMSP draft and sent to NISH team for review. Received feedback from NISH which led to a redirection, where the skeleton will be scrapped, example DMSPs will be provided along with the README document that is currently in progress and a guidelines document.
• Identifying metadata fields to be hidden is still in progress.

Development

• Create customCAFEAdditionalData metadata block with CCH Terms field dataverse.harvard.edu#318
