Timeline and Processing
Your contributions are welcome now! Code and documentation need not be finished, so long as it is working and we can all see what it is for. Time is set aside for fixing, polishing, and integration. We have some general Code Contribution Guidelines available, but you are also welcome to ask questions on the dspace-devel mailing list.
A detailed release timeline will be posted here after the DSpace development community has an opportunity to discuss the schedule.
Release Process needs to proceed according to the following Maven release process: Release Procedure
