Hi David, When deciding between v6 and v7, the first thing you likely need to be aware of is that 7.0 does NOT (yet) have all the same features as 6.x.
That means there are many 6.x features that are still being ported to 7.x (little by little over several 7.x releases). Here's the list of prioritized features still coming to 7.x: https://wiki.lyrasis.org/display/DSPACE/DSpace+Release+7.0+Status#DSpaceRelease7.0Status-Whatfeaturesarecominginalater7.xrelease?7.x So, if any of the features listed in the prioritized list are "show stoppers" for your institution, then you may want to either wait for those features to appear in 7.x, or upgrade now to 6.x & jump to 7.x a little later. That said, there are 7.0 sites already out there (and a 7.1 release with bug fixes and a few more features is likely in a month or so). It's just a matter of whether 7.x currently meets your local requirements or not.

Is 7 stable and bug-free enough? IT probably won't revisit this for quite some time. So, any patches and fixes may wait for quite some time.
