<p class="MsoNormal">Hello ArchivesSpace members,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The ArchivesSpace team is pleased to announce a release candidate, v3.3.0-RC1. You can download it at
<a href="https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/releases/tag/v3.3.0-RC1">
https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/releases/tag/v3.3.0-RC1</a> or test it out without downloading at
<a href="http://test.archivesspace.org/staff">http://test.archivesspace.org/staff</a> (username admin /password admin).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#24292F;background:white">This release candidate includes many small bug fixes and feature enhancements. Of particular note are some enhancements to spawning from accessions and an option for logged in users to change
their own passwords. As part of the spawning improvements, the <a href="https://github.com/hudmol/as_accession_links">
plugin Hudson Molonglo developed for The New School Archives and Special Collections</a> to link accessions to archival objects has been incorporated into the core code of ArchivesSpace.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">A particular thanks to our Testing sub-team for their work testing individual JIRAs and doing regression testing across the application.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Please try this release candidate out and let us know at <a href="mailto:ArchivesSpaceHome@lyrasis.org">
ArchivesSpaceHome@lyrasis.org</a> by August 29 if you notice any problems with the specific areas addressed in this release, or if anything that was working before no longer is. Pending the results of this testing, we will aim to release the production version
of 3.3.0 shortly afterwards. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Please get in touch if you have any questions. Thanks as always for your feedback and support.<o:p></o:p></p>
