Hi Euler, Thanks for informing, as an existing DSpace 7 user this issue is a high priority for us also. We use authority control persons and grants in our institutional Dspace 7 repository and have been unable to add or remove them for our archived items.
Tim, Github doesn't have a "vote" feature to allow the community to vote or request the review of priorities for reported issues (unless we add 'likes' or apply something like https://github.com/cncf/gitvote). I'm happy to add continue to add comments to issues impacting us if this is the best way to vote at present. In the interim, is there any chance we may be able to request your review of this ticket's priority ( https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-angular/issues/1758) based on our comments?
