3. (Ongoing Topic) DSpace 6.x Status Updates for this week

   1. DSpace 6.3 Release Planning is ongoing. Thanks to those who have been helping out with tests and reviews over the last week.

   2. Over the next week or two, more open As noted previously, the target release date is May 21, and some PRs will be shifted to 6.4 as we don't have enough resource to get through them all. DS-3447 has also given us a bit more work to do, to get some important bug fixes into the release (ORCID API functionality). The schedule will therefore be pushed out a bit, perhaps a 'soft freeze' by May 14 or 15 and release by May 21. If we can get to a 'soft freeze' on 6.x merges, we can start testing a 6.3 release more thoroughly. More info at: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/dspace-devel/RbHhnhaFOto

   3. The highest priority is testing and improving the ORCID v2 API functionality (DS-3447). If you have time to help, please try out the newest pull request at https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/pull/2039 and join the conversation / reviews in Github.
