Notes:
This DEVELOPMENT release contains an important security fix. All
CDSware DEVELOPMENT users (v0.1.x and v0.3.x) are asked to upgrade
to v0.3.1 as soon as possible. Users of v0.0.9 are not affected.
Known problems:
Ranking engine is fully functional from the admin-level point of
view, but the end-user ranking functionality still has to be
plugged into the search interface. Several important admin-level
functionalities of v0.0.9 are still missing in the v0.3.x tree.
What's next:
Fixing known problems described above. Developing BibIndex for
better phrase indexing and browsing.
