The more up to date you are, the better. A couple of weeks ago there was the preview release of DSpace 7 (see below)

DSpace Release 7.0 Status

Re upgrades to DSpace:  Ashesi has its IR hosted and managed by DuraSpace, but the version is still 5.**  Any comments

You should be able to upgrade to the latest stable version of DSpace

Maybe I should be clear that DuraSpace actually hosts and manages the Dspace software for Ashesi, and I have asked our contact about upgrading.  I guess I will do this again

Thanks Nina. Write me an email if you have any issue: mmennielli@duraspace.org

Sorry i joined late. But do you recommend full author names or abbreviations. eg Agbodza Henry instead of Agbodza H.?


I hope the Q&A will be part of the recording. Thanks

yes!
