Note
titleDSpace v7 versus DSpace-CRIS v7

DSpace v7 and DSpace-CRIS v7 are separate open source products with separate roadmaps and separate governance models. As you may know, DSpace is a community-maintained, open-source platform, including community-elected governance.  DSpace-CRIS is an open-source product built/maintained/governed by 4Science, which extends that DSpace platform for research data & information management use cases.  DSpace Governance has been in discussions with 4Science regarding convergence of the two products, but the products will continue to be separate in v7.x.

While we congratulate our colleagues/friends at 4Science for their recent release of DSpace-CRIS v7, the DSpace 7.0 release is scheduled for August 2, 2021, as the DSpace dev team is working to finish squashing high priority bugs & accessibility issues discovered during our Community Testathon (see our 7.0 work board for outstanding work).
