Next ZF Version
[Carried forward from last time] The zendservice-amazon component is not going to be supported in the future. We may eventually want to have a conversation about the fate of VuFind's Amazon support. Is anyone using it?
Improved Use of Permissions
No news.
Improved Geographic Features
The geographic branch is getting a final polish; the main hold-up before merging is that we need to finish the SolrMarc upgrade.
New SolrMarc
Demian and Bob have been working on fixing some minor indexing bugs. As of this morning, all known issues appear to be resolved. More input from other users would be appreciated.
One note: while the new version greatly improves indexing performance, many VuFind users unfortunately will not see a significant speed-up because of the bottleneck of accessing MySQL for first_indexed/last_indexed data. There is probably still some speed benefit, but it is not nearly as dramatic when the database is involved.
Solr 6
No news.
