Known Issues
- Newspaper Solution Pack is incomplete and will be released separately.
- Book and newspaper batch ingest is incomplete and will be released separately.
- Books and PDFs ingested into the D6 version of Islandora are incompatible with D7 Islandora due to changed Datastreams. These changes are relatively small and a migration script is forthcoming.
- Deleting a form does not delete its associations. To workaround: Recreate a form with the same name and remove the associations.
