A recording of a panel presentation at Samvera Connect 2018 described thus and In this panel we will briefly discuss the current landscape of needs and reasons for users to consider moving from an established repository, and the challenges facing users of a variety of platforms, both cultural and technological. We will also consider work currently underway such as "Bridge to Hyku", a grant-sponsored project empowering Content DM users to migrate, successes in DSpace-to-Samvera migration and what's on the horizon for BePress. In discussing these challenges, we hope to present the Samvera Community with an opportunity to grow the portfolio of users and create the potential for standards and teams to assist those who wish to be a part of the Samvera Community.

Avalon will demonstrate how an initial plan to re-architect Avalon Media System utilizing the Hyrax stack has paired with efforts to ensure greater sustainability of both Avalon and Samvera as framework and community. Following that goal, the past year the Avalon team has made terrific strides toward the development of Avalon 7, in part through community collaborative work with Hyrax and Samvera teams. Additionally, we'll cover work aimed at preservation and scaled hosting of Avalon, as well as a range of activities including IIIF development for audiovisual media, collaborations with Avalon users, new features such as OHMS integration, our participation in community interest and working groups, and our efforts at outreach to find and assist new and potential users.
