Main changes since RC3 include:
- improved docker deployment for local demonstration and test.
- improved language choice when editing records metadata.
The main features available in B2SHARE2 RC4 are:
- based on Invenio v3
- user login using the staging B2ACCESS server
- records lifecycle: creation and editing of drafts, publishing them
- fast record search
- PID for each public record and for files
- simple authorisation system: the record owners can edit/publish records; the published records' metadata is publicly available; record files are readable only if the record is published and marked as open access.
- support for custom metadata templates for each community
- user-friendly license selector UI control
- OAI-PMH support with DC and MarcXML metadata formats
- HTTP API for creating, editing and publishing records
Notably missing features compared to v1 (coming in the next RCs):
- comments and reviews for datasets
- 'report abuse' and 'request access to private record' functions
- embargo date is currently ignored
Work in progress features (to be released in the following RCs):
- DOIs for published records
- user interface and HTTP APIs for managing user communities and their metadata
- file download statistics
- community administrators and community member roles for finer grained access control
- specialised UI controls for editing records: scientific disciplines, language selection
- UI and HTTP API for navigating record versions
- easy local installations (with Docker)
