PR#2693 (6.x)

PR#2692 (master)

Big
Bigger changeAdding an 'Anonymize Statistics' feature to DSpace for GDPR compliance. Most of the discussion is on JIRA and on the master PR #2692. Consensus so far is that it works well, is definitely worth trying to get into 6.4, but could do with a bit more testing just to ensure no data loss to stats docs can occur in various conditions (see last master comment)

change

Support for SHERPA ROMeO API ends on April 14. Kim Shepherd is working on a PR to work with the new JSON APIv2. The data structure is quite different and the use of colours is not encouraged so much anymore, so there are a few questions around what to change, what to try and fit back into the old view/model, etc. (see JIRA convo)
This would be really good to get into 6.4 as all SHERPA lookups will start breaking after mid-April.

PR#2113
PR#1730 (merged)
PR#2464
Competing PRs

A small bugfix, but there seem to be three PRs with similar solutions.
I think we prefer PR#2113 as it is a bit more robust, but...
I think PR#1730 might already fix the issue - needs testing. And PR#2464 is trying to fix a starts by issue and has a conflict with the changes merged from #1730.

In short: I think  this issue might either be fixed already in 6.x, or just needs PR#2113 to merge. Would appreciate a second opinion.

I could not replicate the issue described in PR#2464 when using a build off 6_x. I tried browsing authors, titles and subjects, with RPP = 2 to compensate for the relatively little content on my test database.
I think we should merge PR#2113 and skip these other two. Having said that, I do not feel like I can be 100% about this. -- Hrafn Malmquist
