Hi Letha,
As you may have seen Walt's email recently that announced installation of the 0.51.0 node software on
sandbox.learningregistry.org, with the intent roll the same install into production (node01 and node02) last Thursday.
Regarding this deployment, the major things addressed are:
1. Introduction of Replacement Resource Data (to handle update/delete).
2. Slice api has been simplified; not as many combinations available for query.
3. Migrated documentation to be part of the source - to make it easier to version tie documentation and source.
- in reStructuredText format.
- if you find something is missing, a typo, an error, or have something to contribute please feel free open a pull request with your updates to the documentation.
4. More rigorous validation upon publish
- we've swapped out the hand crafted validation code in exchange for JSON Schema. This has simplified the validation and expands the capabilities for nodes who wish to have more rigorous data validation upon publish and distribution.
- plugin system added for custom publish/update policy (this will get further enhancement with another project I'm working on soon).
The biggest thing we ask the community to do is to help review the new documentation, and propose edits and changes where necessary. We want to solve any documentation gap there may have been.
