Hi PKP team,

In a recent blog post, you mentioned that the PKP team was working on a plugin for migrating data from Bepress to OJS (3.x). I was wondering if there’s any timeline for this, or somewhere that I can follow progress, as we have an institution that will be doing this kind of migration in the near future. I didn’t see a Github issue for it, but I may not have used the right terms.

Thanks!

Hi @kaitlin,

We’re still in active development and testing but hope to have the plugin finished and available shortly. Unfortunately I can’t confirm a timeline at this point but we’ll have a follow-up blog post when the plugin is publicly available.

Cheers,
Michael

This is great, thanks @mfelczak! We’re hoping to try it out next week if all goes well.
