VuFind 1.4 was successfully released on schedule. No problems have been reported yet, but please try the new release and let us know how it works for you.

Demian has written some new blog posts about VuFind 2 refactoring and unit testing (part 1, part 2).

Demian has also added a new “social statistics” page to the Admin module to report on usage of comments, favorites and tags (since it is often interesting to measure the popularity of these features).

VuFind 2 has been upgraded to Zend Framework 2.1.0. This fixes some bugs and adds important new features, including the long-awaited “render.error” event which will help prevent “white screens of death.”

Demian has refactored the Export-related code so that there are fewer static calls; instead there is an Export tools object in the Service Manager. This makes overrides and testing easier.

We should discuss changes to default settings in 2.0. For example, should Author module continue to use ExpandFacets by default?

The next call will be Tuesday, February 19, 2013 at 10am Eastern Standard Time (15:00 GMT).
