These responses provide critical feedback about the performance, design, and functionality of the ArchivesSpace application and a useful benchmark against which to measure member organization's satisfaction.<br>
<br>
Survey results also contribute to planning development tracks and establishing development priorities. As a result of the survey, 18 stories currently in the Hudson Molonglo's development backlog are candidates for inclusion in the next minor release (1.5.2),
 currently scheduled for December 8. A search filter listing these stories is available to all JIRA users here <</span><a href="https://archivesspace.atlassian.net/issues/?filter=11600"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1155CC">https://archivesspace.atlassian.net/issues/?filter=11600</span></a><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black">>.
 As indicated in the status column, development on these stories is already well underway. Eight stories are already either Accepted or Delivered and awaiting acceptance testing. *Note that those stories not delivered in the upcoming 1.5.2 release will be addressed
