Info
titleRanking of outstanding features into "Tiers"

In April-May 2021, all DSpace Steering & Leadership members were surveyed on the features not yet implemented in 7.0.  They were asked to rank those features on behalf of their institution(s) they represent.  In June 2021, a subset of those members compiled the results into 5 "tiers", based on the results of that survey.  These "tiers" provide the priority of every outstanding feature, and map to a rough plan for at least five 7.x releases.  Features are also ranked within a "tier" based on their number (with #1 being the highest priority within that tier).


Note
titleRoadMap for 7.5 6 (due to be released in Feb June 2023)

The 7.5 6 release will include new features & additional maintenance tasks (bug fixes, usability fixes, etc). Donated features must be submitted based on the following deadlines to be included in 7.5 (otherwise, they will be rescheduled for 7.6):

  • By December 1, institutions wishing to donate features should "announce" their intentions by either creating a GitHub issue ticket for the donated feature, or commenting on an existing ticket asking to claim it.  If any feature is very large or complex it will require feedback from Tim Donohue and the DSpace 7 Working Group , before it can be scheduled for a specific release.
  • By December 23, any donated features must have Pull Request(s) containing suggested code changes corresponding to the feature.  These PR(s) will then be assigned to reviewers to provide feedback on code, etc.
  • During January, the DSpace 7 Working Group will review/approve donated PRs.  Members of this team may provide feedback or requests for changes to the PR(s).  We ask that you be responsive, as all PRs must be merged by February 10 – any not merged will be immediately rescheduled for the next release.

be the final 7.x release which includes new features. See "DSpace 7 moving into maintenance after 7.6"

It will be released in late June, 2023Please get in touch with Tim Donohue if you have any questions about donating features back to this release.
