Sandy Payette, Co-Director of the Fedora Project and Researcher in the Cornell Information Science department, announced a tentative date for the release 2.2 of the FEDORA digital object repository.
The Fedora development team would like to announce that Fedora 2.2 will be released on Friday, January 19, 2007.
This new release will contain many significant new features and enhancements, including [numbers added to the original for the sake of subsequent commentary]:
- Fedora repository is now a web application (.war) that can be installed in any container
- Fedora authentication has been refactored to use servlet filters (no longer Tomcat realms)
