NOTE, the list presented below was copied directly from the DSpace 1.6.0 Testathon page, and has had minimal editing since being pasted, it . It is highly likely to omit important functionality as well as contain references to features that have changed since 1.6. We will do our best to rework this list so it is more complete and accurate–in fact, your help in doing so is much appreciated.

...

    • Statistics (see statistics below)
    • Delete collection
      • on deleting the collection there should be more information about it's content for the admin. Maybe an automated export of the collection for the admin would be usefull too
