[IPT] IPT Digest, Vol 28, Issue 1

Thu Jun 2 23:41:02 CEST 2011

Hi Deependra,

2.0.2 is a minor version release addressing bugs as documented on
http://code.google.com/p/gbif-providertoolkit/issues/list?can=1&q=Milestone%3DRelease2.0.2+&colspec=ID+Type+Status+Priority+Milestone+Owner+Summary&cells=tiles

The significant enhancement is the inclusion of a Rich Text Format of  
the metadata as detailed in http://code.google.com/p/gbif-providertoolkit/issues/detail?id=471&can=1&q=Milestone%3DRelease2.0.2
This allows users to submit manuscripts to Pensoft for publishing in a  
Data Paper as introduced in http://www.gbif.org/communications/news-and-events/showsingle/article/new-incentive-for-biodiversity-data-publishing/

I hope this helps,
Tim
