Announcing DSpace 1.1!

We are pleased to announce the availability of release 1.1 of DSpace. Developed jointly by MIT Libraries and Hewlett-Packard (HP), DSpace is freely available to research institutions world-wide as an open source digital library system.

This new release of the software contains many new features, among them advanced search capabilities, improved unicode handling, and OAICAT resumption token support. In addition, we have fixed numerous bugs identified since the previous and have updated the documentation.
