titleA More Recent 3.x Release Exists: DSpace 3.2

We recommend DSpace 3.x users upgrade to DSpace 3.2 directly, rather than upgrading to 3.1.  The process to do so is documented at: DSpace Release 3.2 Notes

Tip
titleDSpace 3.1 was officially released to the public on January 30, 2013.

DSpace 3.1 can be downloaded immediately at either of the following locations:

In addition, you are welcome to try out DSpace 3.1 on http://demo.dspace.org/ and continue to provide any feedback you may have.

Info
titleWe recommend DSpace 3.0 users upgrade to 3.1

Generally we recommend all DSpace 3.0 users upgrade to DSpace 3.1 to receive several bug fixes. However, if you decide that none of the bug fixes are relevant for you then there is no urgent case for upgrading.

However, it is worth noting that users who wish to run DSpace 3 with an Oracle database must upgrade to 3.1, as it resolves Oracle compatibility issues with DSpace 3.0.
