<span style="color:black">Thanks to all who participated at the ArchivesSpace Annual Member Forum! We really enjoyed catching up with you and getting some real facetime with our incredible community. In an effort to get to know our community better, we are
launching full speed in the effort to compile an <i>ArchivesSpace Member Directory</i>! Read on for more news!</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<span style="color:black">This release contains many program-led and community pull requests that provide feature enhancements, bug fixes, infrastructure improvements, and documentation updates. The centerpiece of this release is the refactored reports worked
on by our co-op student from Georgia Tech, Sarah Morrissey.</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="color:black">Another especially noteworthy improvement is code contributed by Mark Triggs that reduces loading times for records in the staff interface. Our contractor Manny Rodriguez from LibraryHost continues to provide invaluable work to improve
our OAI-PMH and export functionality. Other items of note include small updates to the PDF produced from the public interface and the option to use Japanese translations for the interface labels. There are also some bug fixes for the public and staff interfaces
and some additional automated tests and infrastructure upgrades. The full list of bug fixes and improvements is included in the release notes.</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="color:black">Thanks to community members Mark Triggs, Chris Fitzpatrick, Lora Woodford, Mark Cooper, Dave Mayo, Steve Majewski, knjko, Jacob Brown, and Brian Harrington for their code contributions. We are also very appreciative of all the work
our Development Prioritization sub-team, Testing sub-team, and Core Committers Group do in helping prioritize, test, and do code review for issues for this and all of our releases. A special note of gratitude goes to the Reports sub-team for all their long-standing
and indefatigable work in helping us improve reports.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

</span>for all of us to better engage each other for questions, ideas, and insights.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<span style="color:black">At our Annual Member Forum, we announced our idea to facilitate an “implementation buddy” program to help connect our ArchivesSpace community members so we can work through challenges together. We shared our thoughts on how stepping
up as a mentor comes with the expectations that may exceed the bandwidth that most of our extremely busy community currently may have. Our vision for “implementation buddies” aims to lift that burden of mentorship while connecting members who can help each
other out in balanced harmony.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
