<p class="MsoNormal">Hi All,<o:p></o:p></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">We are currently on EPrints version 3.3.14. We have wanted to upgrade to 3.4 for a good while now, but due to REF, COVID, REF extension and various issues around RT2 we have delayed.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">We were told our version of eprints should work with RT2, but as it stands it looks like the earliest version of EPrints that RT2 will work on is 3.3.15. Our "upgrade plan" for Elements, EPrints and the the repository server OS is centred
around this RT2 upgrade, so as you may imagine this is causing me some concern.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Can anybody advise on the differences between 3.314 and 3.3.15 (or point me to any good info). To be on 3.3.15 is it a big upgrade or essentially adding some files/changing a few bits? I would ideally like to stick to our current upgrade
plan as getting here has been like herding cats at times.<o:p></o:p></p>
