Joachim, The 3.0 Release Schedule can be found here: https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/DSpace+Release+3.0+Notes#DSpaceRelease3.0Notes-ReleaseScheduleDetails
There will be some upcoming "Release Candidates" that we will ask for help from the community in testing. However, at this time the first Release Candidate isn't scheduled to be released until end of August. We will announce the Release Candidate on all dspace listservs once it is ready for testing. 3.0 Schedule updates can be found by visiting the above wiki page, or by joining our 'dspace-release' listserv (which is used for actual release planning & organization). Anyone can join this list. https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dspace-release - Tim On 7/30/2012 9:47 AM, Joachim Bingel wrote: > Hi Tim, > > thanks very much for your response!
