Preface

Welcome to Release 1.7.0.  The committers have volunteered many hours to fix, re-write and contribute new software code for this release. Documentation has been updated.  

This version of the documentation was produced with Confluence software.  HTML and PDF versions were generated from the Confluence wiki software.

The following is a list of the new features included (not an exhaustive list) for release 1.7.0.

The following people have contributed to this release of DSpace: @mire, BioMed Central, Andrea Bollini, Ben Bosman, Flavio Botelho, Peter Dietz, Mark Diggory, Tim Donohue, Serhij Dubyk, Enovation Solutions, Sands Fish Javier Garrido, Keith Gilbertson, Ladd Hanson, Leonie Hayes, Paulo Jobim, Claudia Juergen, Keller, Fabio Kepler, Yin Yin Latt, Stuart Lewis, Bram Luyten, Van Ly, Ivan Masar, Alexey Maslov, Gabriela Mircea, Hardik Mishra, Caryn, Neiswender, Venessa Newton-Wade, OhioLINK, Ekaterina Pechekhonova, Dale Poulter, Toni Prieto, Richard Rodgers, Ricardo Saraiva, Andreas Schwander, Kim Shepherd, Elin Stangeland, Larry Stone, Keiji Suzuki, Robin Taylor, Graham Triggs, Jeffrey Trimble, Kevin Van de velde, Steve Williams and Mark Wood. Many of them could not do this work without the support (release time and financial) of their associated institutions. We offer thanks to those institutions for supporting their staff to take time to contribute to the DSpace project.

We apologize to any committer left off this list.  DSpace has such a large, arctive development community that we sometimes loose track of all our contributors.  Our ongoing list of all known people/institutions that contribute to DSpace can be found on our DSpace Contributors Wiki page (http://wiki.dspace.org/confluence/display/DSPACE/DSpaceContributors).  Acknowledgements to those left off will be made in future releases.

The Documentation Gardener for this release was Jeffrey Trimble with input from everyone.  All typos are his fault.

Peter Dietz is the Release Co-ordinator of this release.

Additional thanks to Tim Donohue from DuraSpace on keeping all of us focused on the work at hand, and calming us when we got excited and for the general support for the DSpace project.
