With DSpace 3.0, the DSpace Developers will be changing our release numbering scheme. Release numbers will now only consist of two numbers:
There will be a migration path for users upgrading from v1.8.2 to the 3.0 release. For more information see DSpace Release Numbering Scheme and the initial DSpace 3.0 Announcement |

We recommend users upgrade to DSpace 3.2 directly, rather than upgrading to 3.0. The process to do so is documented at: DSpace Release 3.2 Notes |

Why 3.0? What happened to 2.0?
In 2011, after much discussion, the DSpace Committers in conjunction with members of the DSpace Community Advistory Team (DCAT) decided to forgo releasing a "DSpace 2.0".
...
Many of the ideas/concepts of "DSpace 2.0" may still be coming to the DSpace platform. But, they will continue to be added incrementally over several releases. The ideas behind "2.0" still live on, even while the release numbering has changed.

3.0 Decisions To Be Documented
- Where should translations of individual modules like Discovery go? Including them in the main messages.xml currently works. This should be answered before freeze time, it already poses another barrier for commiting of translations, see DS-1049, DS-1054. This is a subproblem of i18n Improvements Proposal, but let us not divert this discussion too much to broad topics. ~~helix84
- ANSWER: In mtg on July 25, we decided the best we likely can do for 3.0 is to suggest that translations of individual modules should just be added to the central messages.xml/messages.properties files. For the full discussion see: http://irclogs.duraspace.org/index.php?date=2012-07-25 (starts: [20:57])
