This page will list current versions and releases of Spotlight and related software.  Institutions that may have a "forked" version of the software may want to list it here as well.  This information will help sites plan for new releases and keep their curators informed about upcoming features and versions.

Brainstorming Ideas

At the November 3, 2017 Service and Collections call, there was a brainstorming session on what the group wanted to accomplish.  The list is in the minutes for the meeting.  The group also decided to create a poll to help prioritize this list and identify issues that are most important for our institutions.  A link to that poll is below.
