DSpace Community,

We have seen lots of progress lately to move us more towards the DSpace 1.5 release but there is still more to do. The major road blocks that have been a challenge to over come with this release is the documentation. Looking over the state of things today, there is still work to be done. Although the basic documentation is present -- a system administrator can follow the directions and install a fresh copy of DSpace -- there is still some work to do documenting the upgrade process.However I do not feel that should prevent us from moving forward at this time.

Our road map for the next release of DSpace is:
2/13 -- Release Beta 1
2/18 through 2/22 -- DSpace 1.5 test-a-thon
3/10 -- Release Beta 2
3/24 -- Release DSpace 1.5
4/1 -- Open Repositories 2008

I very much hope that as many people as possible are able to find some time during the the week of the 18th to give the beta release a test. During this period please help out by testing out the new - and old - features of dspace plus contribute to the available documentation both in the manual and on the wiki.
