06 Nov '25

Dear all, Next week, *Tuesday 11th November at 14.00 CET*, will be our next *By JHOVE!* meeting. You should have just received the invite from me for this session, and the next (December 9th). I will send fresh invites for the new year, with the addition of an alternative time zone that is friendlier to the US and NZ. Due to conference-travel we are expecting less faces than usual, but it would be great to see those who are able to attend. As requested in the last session, we have *two* new Errors and Warnings breakout rooms (which we hope will be quick wins!). Thank you to those who have kept adding their errors and warnings to our ongoing task spreadsheet <https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1tpVF8MhfWSJEXc61y9Gu9cO9nLfK3tf6kon…> . Don't forget that we have a new User Friendliness breakout room, and a NEW GUI prototype. The early-stages of the new GUI can be tried here: https://jhovereact.opf-labs.org/ + the GitHub repo, and Discussion thread can be found here: https://github.com/opf-labs/jhove-next. As requested, we also have a new guidance document <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ePvI-WelxcsGB2UYjJPz_1YaBl8rww--16BMin_…> on how to edit JHOVE documentation. If you would like me to send you a copy of this due to Drive access issues, let me know. We appreciate your feedback. We hope to see you there :) Best wishes, -- Georgia Moppett (she/her), Community & Content Officer Open Preservation Foundation (OPF) <https://openpreservation.org/> Bluesky <https://bsky.app/profile/openpreservation.org> | GitHub <https://github.com/openpreserve/> | Mailing List <http://openpreservation.org/subscribe>

Next ByJHOVE! meeting Tuesday September 9th.
by Georgia Moppett 05 Sep '25

05 Sep '25

Dear all, A reminder for next week, our next meeting is* Tuesday 9 September 14.00 CEST*. *This is our Plenary session. *These quarterly sessions include presentations from your fellow group members. This next plenary is by Bertrand Caron who will be presenting how TIB – Leibniz Information Centre for Science and Technology and University Library are handling validation errors returned by JHOVE: “One way of handling validation errors returned by JHOVE or other validation tools is to correct format structures. This operation is delicate, requires an in-depth knowledge of analysis tools and format specifications, and might lead to damage and information loss if not performed with enough caution. Nevertheless, in some cases, for example when the file rendering is obviously affected by erroneous structures, this operation can be necessary. Elaborating on the previous work done by [group co-Chair] Micky Lindlar, I will present several use cases of PDF and TIFF repair that had major impact on the file content. I will discuss the importance of a broad range of tools available, the risks identified when performing these operations and a suggested ideal development of a file “repair” process.” We hope you have all had great summers, and hope to see you there! As always, let me know if you have any questions.

Dear all, A reminder for next week; the next meeting is* tomorrow, Tuesday 12 August 14.00 CEST*. This session is an *optional drop in *with the usual breakout rooms.

04 Jun '25

Dear all, A reminder for next week; our *next meeting is Tuesday 10th June 14.00 CEST*. This session will run as usual with breakout rooms. We would like to know your opinion on whether we should continue to run these sessions over the summer; we are happy to do so if you wish to attend. We are aware that many are away for this time, but if we are aware of your intention to attend we will happily host the sessions for July and August. Just let me know! As mentioned previously, the next step for our User Friendliness pillar is the prototype of a web application for a NEW GUI for JHOVE based on initial feedback (and kindly built by Darren!). We hope to eventually incorporate this through all JHOVE applications, and would *love* your feedback throughout its development: The early-stages of the new GUI can be tried here: https://jhovereact.opf-labs.org/ The GitHub repo, and Discussion thread can be found here: https://github.com/opf-labs/jhove-next Please don't forget to continue updating our ongoing task spreadsheet <https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1tpVF8MhfWSJEXc61y9Gu9cO9nLfK3tf6kon…> as it helps guide future sessions.

16 May '25

Dear all, Thank you to those who were able to attend our second plenary session this week at the* By JHOVE! Explain Yourself* meeting. These quarterly sessions are from both group members, and OPF members on how JHOVE is used within their institutions. Our May session saw Jacob Takema and Lotte Wijsman present ‘Developing a WARC conformance checking tool <https://openpreservation.org/events/by-jhove-explain-yourself-plenary-sessi…> ’. PDFs of the slides can be found in the Shared Drive here <https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1UBmKj-8r353vRJn8SEko0Et6oLGsoq54>. If you have any questions we encourage you to follow up with them! If anyone can't access the presentations in the Shared Drive and would like a copy, please let me know. Their WARC tool is an incredible effort, again a big thank you to Lotte and Jacob for all their work on presentation. Please don't forget to continue updating our ongoing task spreadsheet <https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1tpVF8MhfWSJEXc61y9Gu9cO9nLfK3tf6kon…> as it helps guide future sessions. Minutes from previous sessions can also be found in the Shared Drive. The next *BY JHOVE! *session will be *June 10th at 14.00 CEST*. We look forward to seeing you.

BY JHOVE! A New GUI is available for testing
by Georgia Moppett 16 May '25

16 May '25

Dear all, As demonstrated in our *BY JHOVE! Explain Yourself *session earlier this week, Darren has built a prototype of a web application for a NEW GUI for JHOVE based on initial feedback. We hope to eventually incorporate this through all JHOVE applications, and would *love* your feedback throughout its development. The early-stages of the new GUI can be tried here: https://jhovereact.opf-labs.org/ The GitHub repo, and Discussion thread can be found here: https://github.com/opf-labs/jhove-next This development is the first step in what we hope to be many new efforts in the User Friendliness pillar of this working group. Please reach out to me if you have any questions or are looking for clarification. Have a great weekend!
