Hi DSpace community,
And just to add my 2 cents, without the help of everyone from the community,
important requests like this will not get in the new release. The committers
need your help testing and reviewing the code. That ensures the features you
care about, like ORCID, get in.
DSpace is a community source project, and except for Tim D, which is the
dedicated tech lead to the project, all code contributions, testing and release
management is based on volunteer efforts from the community.
Just to note, Hardy Pottinger is a volunteer, out of U of Missouri and doing a
fantastic job coordinating the 5.0 release. We need more volunteers to help
out with this important release.
best,
Michele Kimpton
CEO DuraSpace
