*********************************************************** GNU EPRINTS Version 2.1 Released 4th July, 2002 ***********************************************************
GNU EPrints 2.1 Released. EPrints 2 is free software which creates web based archives, containing documents and metadata. News and Major New Features: * EP2.1 has OAI 2.0 support (and still supports OAI 1.1). See http://www.openarchives.org/ for more information. * Subscription service. This allows registered users to store one or more searches. Every day/week/month the user will be emailed any new or changed records which match their search. * Name changed to "GNU EPrints" as we have joined the GNU project. See http://www.eprints.org/gnu.php for more in depth explanation. * open.ac.uk has provided us with a service which makes it easy to create a discussion forum for each record in your archive. A "how-to" in the documentation explains how to take advantage of this. * There has been some interest from a UK company in providing a pay service to assist installing and maybe hosting archives. Whatever happens we still plan to develop and support the GPL version.
