'''Use Case(s)'''

<pre>
Given that I have some image files
And the files already have names
Then I should be able to put the files somewhere
And I should be able to collect user-contributed metadata
And I should be able to track checksums for files
And I should be able to access content at persistent URLs
</pre>

'''needed'''

* graphical metadata editing and generation of filesystem
* fixity service
* inventory and solr ingestion
