<span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">Thanks to everyone who has tested the release candidate for the 1.5.0 release of ArchivesSpace. We’ve received testing data from approximately 70 institutions at this point and are
pleased that the testing reports we have received have been positive in respect to the processes for upgrading to the 1.5.0 schema and converting to the new container data model. People have been able to convert their container data successfully or, when
necessary, to locate and interpret the error reports generated during the conversion to improve the success rate of further attempts. We are still waiting to hear from a few organizations testing the update/conversion before we schedule the release of v1.5.0.
</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p style="mso-margin-top-alt:0in;margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:8.0pt;margin-left:0in">
<span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">Due to this timing, v1.5.0 will also include new enhancements to the location module that have been recently implemented by Hudson Molonglo and were funded by New York University
(the original announcement of the project is available at </span><a href="http://lyralists.lyrasis.org/pipermail/archivesspace_users_group/2016-January/003027.html"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1155CC">http://lyralists.lyrasis.org/pipermail/archivesspace_users_group/2016-January/003027.html</span></a><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">
and the final version of the specification is attached to this message). NYU recently completed its acceptance testing and the code is ready to be merged into the core code of ArchivesSpace. This is fortunate as the enhancements to the locations module complement
those made already to container management and include a location profile, a calculator for determining empty space in a repository storage area, and holdings reports. Watch for the announcement of a new release candidate, and a follow-up announcement of a
webinar introducing the new features, very soon.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">Finally, enhancements to the public interface have continued during May and into June. The pace of these enhancements will increase shortly, as Harvard and Yale universities will
be contributing resources to the Public User Interface Enhancement Project from now until November. Harvard University will be contributing a developer, whereas Yale University will contract with Hudson Molonglo for development work. All enhancements prioritized
and contributed to the public interface will be coordinated by members of the Public Interface Enhancement Project. Mark Custer (Yale University) will continue to lead this work.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
