2. Development Planning
Call Number Normalization
Improved Author Indexing
Demian has been reviewing VUFIND-542, the JIRA ticket addressing more flexible representation of authors in VuFind. He plans on adapting this to a PR for VuFind 2 to bring it up to date and make it easier to discuss, but would appreciate input from others in the meantime if anyone else has time to look at the existing patches.
Solr Upgrade?
Demian has updated pull request #306 to the latest Solr 4 version (4.10.4).
