   * [[https://github.com/vufind-org/vufind/pull/414|#414]] - merged - This adds more consistent restrictions to limit the size of the result set provided by VuFind in more backends (the functionality already existed for EDS, Primo and Summon, but this adds it to Solr and makes support in other backends trivial to implement).   * [[https://github.com/vufind-org/vufind/pull/414|#414]] - merged - This adds more consistent restrictions to limit the size of the result set provided by VuFind in more backends (the functionality already existed for EDS, Primo and Summon, but this adds it to Solr and makes support in other backends trivial to implement).

There's also been some recent discussion about the use of Set vs. List in the indexing routines, since we need to be able to correctly align author names with relators. André will put together some sample records to move forward on this.
  
 === Solr Upgrade === === Solr Upgrade ===
  
 André has tested the new version of Solr with his custom code and found no problems. We should now be set to merge this to master. Demian will do some SolrMarc-related cleanup (to remove deprecated configuration settings from the properties files) and will merge. After that, he will begin work on a new PR for Solr 5. André has tested the new version of Solr with his custom code and found no problems. We should now be set to merge this to master.

 === OpenURL Improvements === === OpenURL Improvements ===
  
-Please take a look at pull request [[https://github.com/vufind-org/vufind/pull/397|#397]]. This includes some work on improving the flexibility of OpenURL support, making the rules for displaying OpenURLs more configurable and less code-based and attempting to normalize method naming and make better use of view helpers. Some of these changes are backward-compatibility breaking, so we should be sure to get this right prior to merging. See also [[vufind2:openurls#defining_openurl_rules|documentation in progress]].+Please take a look at pull request [[https://github.com/vufind-org/vufind/pull/397|#397]].

-The 2015 VuFind Summit will be held on October 12 and 13. Registration will open as soon as the pricing is finalized -- we originally expected to have to raise fees to cover costs, but a pending donation may allow us to maintain last year's rates. This will be finalized soon. Watch the [[..:vufind_summit_2015|wiki page]] for details (though everything is subject to change for the moment).+The 2015 VuFind Summit will be held on October 12 and 13.
