Folks,

Anybody who downloaded and installed Archivists' 
Toolkit ver. 1.0.18 prior to receiving this 
message should download and install it again per the instructions below.

An error occurred in the build of the release 
that broke the internal bug reporting 
function.  This is corrected in the version now 
available from the AT project site and will work 
with all database instances upgrade to work with ver. 1.0.18.

I apologize for any inconvenience this has caused.

Please let us know if you have questions, and 
thank you for your continued support.

*************

The Archivists’ Toolkit Project Team is pleased 
to announce the release of the second version of 
Archivists’ Toolkit 1.1 beta (v. 1.0.18).

This version corrects three issues present in the previous 1.1 beta:

·         Upgrading from 1.0 to the current 
version.  The bug that prevented upgrade from the 
1.0 version to the 1.1 beta has been fixed.  Both 
the 1.0 and the previous 1.1 beta (v. 1.0.15) can 
be upgraded to the current 1.1 beta (v. 1.0.18).

·         Unexpected and unpredictable loss of 
component records (see ART-883 at 
<https://jira.nyu.edu:8443/jira/browse/ART-883>https://jira.nyu.edu:8443/jira/browse/ART-883 
for a recounting of this bug)

·         Inability for users to report bugs 
through the AT application.  The project team has 
developed middleware to transmit bug reports from 
the AT to the bug report application.

AT 1.1 beta (v. 1.0.18) can be downloaded from 
<http://www.archiviststoolkit.org/publicBeta/downloads/install.htm>http://www.archiviststoolkit.org/publicBeta/downloads/install.htm.

The AT 1.1 beta sandbox will be upgraded to work 
with the new AT 1.1 beta (v.1.0.18).  Users 
employing v. 1.0.15 to access the new sandbox will need to upgrade to v.1.0.18.

Directions for accessing the 1.1 beta sandbox are 
located on the AT website at 
<http://archiviststoolkit.org/publicBeta/index.html>http://archiviststoolkit.org/publicBeta/index.html. 
So too are suggestions for anyone interested in 
systematically testing the application or parts of it.
