<p class="MsoNormal">Hello ArchivesSpace members,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The ArchivesSpace program team is pleased to announce the availability of v2.1.2. This minor release contains several bug fixes, including for an issue with installing on Windows using a blank MySQL database and for an issue with archival
objects with only dates/dates as titles not appearing in the new public interface. It also addresses some technical debt issues. A big thanks to Steve Majewski for submitting fixes for three of the items included in this release.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">You can download this release at <a href="https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/releases/tag/v2.1.2">
