Versions

Fez 2 Release Candidate 1

• Refactored search index for much greater performance and scaling
• New citation engine and citation view
• Compatibility with Fedora 2.2.1, 2.2 and 2.1.1 (Fez 1.3 needed patches to work with Fedora 2.2)
• Simpler installation with as-you-install configuration checks and suggestions
• Many bugfixes and improvements since Fez 1.3.. more details and documentation to come.

Fez 1.3

Fez 1.3 has been released onto sourceforge . You can see many of the changes at Fez 1.3 Test Notes on the wiki or look through the comments on the code checkins

Major new features are:

• XSDs for objects based on MODS instead of DC (can still handle your existing DC objects though)
• Download statistics using apache logs and GeoIP
• Object history logging (premis events)
• Shibboleth support
• Fulltext indexing (pdf only)
• Import and Export of workflows and XSDs
• Sanity checking to help make sure required external dependencies are working
• OAI provider that respects FezACML authorisation rules

NOTE: Fez 1.3 does not support Fedora 2.2 unless you upgrade or merge some files with the latest Fez SVN trunk. We recommend using Fez 2.0 RC1.
