The Digital Curation Centre is pleased to announce the launch of DMP Online v3.0

This new release marks a major progression in the software’s functionality. For 
the first time users can create data management plans incorporating multiple 
templates, so if your institution, your funder and your publisher all require 
data management plans, you can now create a single plan to satisfy them all.

There are also more granular export options, so you can choose to output only 
the sections you want to include in any given report, targeting it towards the 
intended readership. If you want to focus attention on just one facet of your 
data management plan, it’s easy: just select and deselect as required.

Other new features in v3.0 include:

-       Ability to share plans, and to edit them jointly with colleagues
-       Simultaneous viewing of multiple custom guidance notes
-       More flexible project stages (phases) for templates
-       User maintainable profile/login details
-       XLSX output

Over the coming months we will be rolling out a number of additional features, 
and further announcements will flag their release:

-       A facility for boilerplate text to be included within templates
-       Display of funder constraints on output (e.g. number of pages, word 
count etc)
-       Increased institutional customisability, including a new 
‘administrator’ user type
-       Support for non-English Language versions of the tool 

Also, as a result of ongoing consultation with our users, we'll be developing 
an API together with more new features to enable improved interoperation 
between DMP Online and other related systems and tools, and enhanced reporting 
capabilities for both system users and administrators including running word 
and page count to help users adhere to funders’ constraints, and a facility to 
publish plans without the need to log in.

If you would like to see any of these prioritised, we can move it up the list – 
just drop us a line and let us know, or request a new feature at 
https://github.com/DigitalCurationCentre/DMPOnline/issues

So visit http://dmponline.dcc.ac.uk and get started now, or check out the Open 
Source code on GitHub. And as ever, if you have suggestions about how we might 
continue to extend and improve DMP Online, we want to hear from you. Email 
dmponl...@dcc.ac.uk and let us know what you think.
