Main changes since RC5:

  • UI control for selecting the scientific discipline

  • records lifecycle: creation and editing of drafts, publishing them
  • fast record search
  • PID for each public record and for files

  • support for custom metadata templates for each community
  • user-friendly license selector UI control
  • OAI-PMH support with DC and MarcXML metadata formats
  • HTTP API for creating, editing and publishing records
