DRAM uses Carnegie
classifications in order to maintain fairness across all institutions
participating in the project. DRAM has your Carnegie Classifications on
record, and if you are in Canada, we will typically use your JSTOR/ARTstor
classification.

Update 13/9/07.
Re technical problems with ezproxy servers:
We actually know what these
problems were and how to solve them – basically, the firewalls for many
of the institutions there are just set in such a way so that the Darwin
Streaming Server traffic can’t get through until the IT staff of each institution
bypasses us, which they can easily (well, theoretically!) do by putting
DRAM in the network bypass table. There are two public addresses needed
for that:
The public addresses are:
www.dramonline.org 69.60.15.236
and shib.dramonline.org
69.60.15.234.
....we may be able to implement
a workaround by the end of this year – basically, if we move from Darwin
streaming to “progressive downloading” which runs over a different port
so this step becomes unnecessary.
Update 7/9/07:
We now have basic DRAM statistics and I have posted these to: http://www.dramonline.org/dram/_html/about/stats.html
A downloadable Excel version
is available on this page. Please note these statistics do not include
Shibboleth or username/password accesses because our current system does
not allow us to gather those statistics.
Update 31/7/07:
Our migration testing is
now complete, and please use www.dramonline.org going forward, if you have
not already made this change. We are able to track usage statistics at
our new address and are maintaining only this site, so it is important
to use it going forward.
Instructions for proxy server
settings are available at: http://www.dramonline.org/dram/_html/about/proxies.html
Update 19/7/07:
1. Permalinks: the beginning
of the syntax is different (www.dramonline.org
instead of dram.nyu.edu). The old NYU links will work after we migrate,
but it is best to use the new links.
2. Proxy servers: instructions
for EZProxy and Innovative are available at: http://www.dramonline.org/dram/_html/about/proxies.html
If [anyone] needs assistance
with another kind of proxy, we can try to help to get things working.
3. Log-in screen: Users
will soon no longer have to click an extra page to logon if they are within
a valid IP range. This was a remnant of the original Shibboleth system,
which most participants are not using. We are therefore simplifying logon.
Because development is now
in-house, we hope to have basic statistics ready by around September (or
earlier) and a Flash player by early next year at the latest.
