Technical Changelog

This minor release for 2017 implements a number of bug fixes to RDA and the DOI service.

Highlights of R23.1 include:

Research Data Australia

  • Increase the DB character limit for records titles to accommodate records with very long titles
  • Fix the display of some ANZSRC-FOR codes containing special characters
  • Enhance the RDA algorithm used to identify and suggest similar datasets - this includes:
    • Identification of datasets that have a 'hasAssociationWith' relationship to the dataset being viewed
    • Using record view events to infer relationships between collections.
    • Excluding datasets from Similar datasets if they are already displayed in the record view (ie. Related datasets)

DOI Service

  • Add the distinct text 'TEST_DOI' to test DOI identifiers in order to make them easily recognisable.
  • Fix an issue with My DOIs admin interface where changes to a clients configuration does not propagate to DataCite.

Other Changes

  • Enhance RDA link checker to handle URLs that contain UTF-8 encoded characters
  • Implement OAI-PMH export of Scholix metadata records
