All, DSpace 1.6.0 Release Candidate 1 (RC1) has now been released and is available at the following locations:
Subversion: svn checkout http://scm.dspace.org/svn/repo/dspace/tags/dspace-1.6.0-rc1/ Zip Files from SourceForge : http://sourceforge.net/projects/dspace/files/ (This release is under the under the "DSpace Release Candidate / 1.6.0-rc1 (patched)" folder.) Unfortunately, just after the release occurred, we located our very first bug in the XMLUI. But, shortly thereafter, we figured out a fix! Therefore, if you plan to do any testing with the XMLUI during next week's Testathon, we would highly recommend one of the following fixes for this major bug: (1) Either, install DSpace from the "dspace-1.6.0-rc1-src-release" version from SourceForge (in this patched version, the bug is already fixed for you) (2) OR, manually patch your version of DSpace 1.6.0-RC1 with the small patch attached to this JIRA issue: http://jira.dspace.org/jira/browse/DS-395 Remember, we start our DSpace 1.6 Testathon - "The Big Bug Hunt" on Monday. We already have a few of our Test Instances up and running with the patched version of DSpace 1.6.0-RC1. Please try to take some time out of your day to help us test!

As a reminder, here's a list of the major new features to look out for: * Improved Statistics * Embargo * Batch Metadata Editing * Improved Documentation * Authority Control Lists * Delegated Administration (e.g. Community Administrators) - Tim ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Join us December 9, 2009 for the Red Hat Virtual Experience, a free event focused on virtualization and cloud computing.
