[Cwisusers] Internet Scout Project Announces CWIS 1.0.0 Release

[David Sleasman]

The Internet Scout Project announces the release of
CWIS 1.0.0.  This turnkey, open source software package
helps groups or organizations put an NSDL collection
portal online and integrate it with the NSDL central
repository via OAI with minimal investment in technical
resources or expertise.

The CWIS software is now available and may be
downloaded at:
   http://scout.wisc.edu/Projects/CWIS/downloads.php

Changes and additions from CWIS 0.9.4 include:
   - RSS and OAI testing links
   - Improved user account management
   - Software registration option
   - Various minor bug fixes

This is the first general (non-beta) release of CWIS.

If you are already using SPT (the Scout Portal Toolkit),
or an earlier version of CWIS, upgrading to CWIS 1.0.0
should be seamless.

Feedback is greatly encouraged and will help to
improve the software's functionality and effectiveness.
Bug reports and comments regarding CWIS should be
sent to: cwissupport at scout.wisc.edu
