[IPT] New IPT release (RC3) now available for download

[Russell, Laura]

What is best practice for installing the new war file if you have a
previous version in place?  I didn't see anything on the wiki.  In my
past experience working with Tomcat, we would stop the service, archive
the old war file, delete the application folders out of webapps and out
of Catalina work folders, place the new war and then restart Tomcat.  Is
all of that necessary or can we just put the new war in place and
restart Tomcat?  If users have not moved their data folder to another
location what cautions do we need to provide?  Thanks.

New features include internationalization support, Darwin Core updates
that reflect the latest ratified standard, and several bug fixes.

Note that we are still unable to reproduce the delete bug
(http://code.google.com/p/gbif-providertoolkit/issues/detail?id=155)
and we are actively looking for testers who can reproduce this issue (or
discover new issues) before the IPT version 1 release.

As always, please submit issues here:

Thanks!
