[SPTUsers] SPT 1.2.3 Released

[Edward Almasy]

   SPT version 1.2.3 has been released, and is now available for download
   on the Scout web site at http://scout.wisc.edu/Projects/SPT/downloads.php

   Highlights of this release include:

     - new interface for assigning controlled names and tree fields in
         Metadata Tool for fields with less than 250 entries,
     - improved handling of diacritics (Unicode),
     - importing users now supports user privileges,
     - added new "Personal Resource Administrator" user privilege flag
         that only allows entering new resources and editing resources
         you have entered,
     - new DateOfRecordRelease field,
     - and various minor bug fixes, including fixes for the many warnings
         revealed by the PHP E_NOTICE error reporting level.

   After installing the new version, we would ask that you use the "Register
   with Scout" feature on the Administration menu to let us know you're
   using the new version of software.  It really helps us determine what kind
   of operating environments the software is running in, and where next to go
   with development.

   We look forward to your feedback on this new version of SPT.

   Thanks.

   Ed
