Mark,
     Are you saying that we shouldn't skip a release, for instance if we are 
running version 1.5.1, we should first upgrade to 1.5.2 or can we go straight 
from 1.5.1 to 1.6?
Thanks,
Sue

Tonny,

The release process is dependent on our staged release process being 
synchronized with the Maven Central Repository.  This used to be every 3 to 4 
hrs.  now it seems to be less frequent (a day or more).  We will announce when 
the release is completely published.

I would highly recommend doing a staging upgrade initially when upgrading from 
1.5.x to 1.6.1, there are significant changes in the code and configuration, it 
is a best practice to stage major version upgrades.

Mark

Hi all,

As you may be aware, DSpace 1.6.1 will be released shortly and this week is our 
final stage of testing. The folks at DuraSpace have just 
upgradedhttp://demo.dspace.org  to the pre-release version of 1.6.1, so it's 
now online and available for testing.

DSpace 1.6.1 is a bug-fix only release which resolves over 30 bugs/issues in 
our 1.6.0 release.  More info on the 1.6.1 release can be found on our 1.6.1 
Release Notes page:
http://wiki.dspace.org/confluence/display/DSPACE/DSpace+Release+1.6.1+Notes

Feel free to try things out -- if this is your first time trying DSpace 1.6, 
there are a number of new features which were introduced in 1.6.0 (see the 
1.6.0 Release notes:
http://wiki.dspace.org/confluence/display/DSPACE/DSpace+Release+1.6.0+Notes

You'd also be doing the community a huge favour by reporting any problems you 
encounter while trying things out!

If you notice any features that don't work properly, an unexpected change in 
behaviour, or anything else you think could be a bug, please don?t hesitate to 
[email protected]  or create an issue 
inhttp://jira.dspace.org

DSpace 1.6.1 XML (Manakin) interface:http://demo.dspace.org/xmlui
