-:warning: **Work on DSpace 7 has begun on our `master` branch.** This means that there is temporarily NO user interface on this `master` branch. DSpace 7 will feature a new, unified [Angular](https://angular.io/) user interface, along with an enhanced, rebuilt REST API. The latest status of this work can be found on the [DSpace 7 UI Working Group](https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/DSpace+7+UI+Working+Group) page.  Additionally, the codebases can be found in the following places:
-  * DSpace 7 REST API work is occurring on the [`master` branch](https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/tree/master/dspace-spring-rest) of this repository.
-     * The REST Contract is being documented at https://github.com/DSpace/Rest7Contract
-  * DSpace 7 Angular UI work is occurring at https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-angular

-## Downloads
-
-The latest release of DSpace can be downloaded from the [DSpace website](http://www.dspace.org/latest-release/) or from [GitHub](https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/releases).
-
-Past releases are all available via GitHub at https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/releases
-
-## Documentation / Installation
-
-Documentation for each release may be viewed online or downloaded via our [Documentation Wiki](https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC/). 
-
-The latest DSpace Installation instructions are available at:
-https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC6x/Installing+DSpace
-
-Please be aware that, as a Java web application, DSpace requires a database (PostgreSQL or Oracle) 
-and a servlet container (usually Tomcat) in order to function.
-More information about these and all other prerequisites can be found in the Installation instructions above.
-
-## Contributing
-
-DSpace is a community built and supported project. We do not have a centralized development or support team, 
-but have a dedicated group of volunteers who help us improve the software, documentation, resources, etc.
-
-We welcome contributions of any type. Here's a few basic guides that provide suggestions for contributing to DSpace:
-* [How to Contribute to DSpace](https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/How+to+Contribute+to+DSpace): How to contribute in general (via code, documentation, bug reports, expertise, etc)
-* [Code Contribution Guidelines](https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/Code+Contribution+Guidelines): How to give back code or contribute features, bug fixes, etc.
-* [DSpace Community Advisory Team (DCAT)](https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/cmtygp/DSpace+Community+Advisory+Team): If you are not a developer, we also have an interest group specifically for repository managers. The DCAT group meets virtually, once a month, and sends open invitations to join their meetings via the [DCAT mailing list](https://groups.google.com/d/forum/DSpaceCommunityAdvisoryTeam).
-
-We also encourage GitHub Pull Requests (PRs) at any time. Please see our [Development with Git](https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/Development+with+Git) guide for more info.
-
-In addition, a listing of all known contributors to DSpace software can be
-found online at: https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/DSpaceContributors
-
-## Getting Help
-
-DSpace provides public mailing lists where you can post questions or raise topics for discussion.
-We welcome everyone to participate in these lists:
-
-* [dspace-community@googlegroups.com](https://groups.google.com/d/forum/dspace-community) : General discussion about DSpace platform, announcements, sharing of best practices
-* [dspace-tech@googlegroups.com](https://groups.google.com/d/forum/dspace-tech) : Technical support mailing list. See also our guide for [How to troubleshoot an error](https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/Troubleshoot+an+error).
-* [dspace-devel@googlegroups.com](https://groups.google.com/d/forum/dspace-devel) : Developers / Development mailing list
-
-Great Q&A is also available under the [DSpace tag on Stackoverflow](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/dspace)
-
-Additional support options are listed at https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/Support
-
-DSpace also has an active service provider network. If you'd rather hire a service provider to 
-install, upgrade, customize or host DSpace, then we recommend getting in touch with one of our 
-[Registered Service Providers](http://www.dspace.org/service-providers).

-/**
- * Import items into DSpace. The conventional use is upload files by copying
- * them. DSpace writes the item's bitstreams into its assetstore. Metadata is
- * also loaded to the DSpace database.
- * <P>
- * A second use assumes the bitstream files already exist in a storage
- * resource accessible to DSpace. In this case the bitstreams are 'registered'.
- * That is, the metadata is loaded to the DSpace database and DSpace is given
- * the location of the file which is subsumed into DSpace.
- * <P>
- * The distinction is controlled by the format of lines in the 'contents' file.
- * See comments in processContentsFile() below.
- * <P>
- * Modified by David Little, UCSD Libraries 12/21/04 to
- * allow the registration of files (bitstreams) into DSpace.
