SEEK version 1.7.1

[Stuart Owen]

Hi,

A new minor release of SEEK has been made available, which contains a
couple of small fixes and improvements. In particular it contains a fix
to a problem that may have prevented data files from being registered
when a user belongs to many projects (>10). 

The changes are:

* Fix to a bug where the session table column was too small. This
sometimes led to a datafile upload problem if the user was in a large
number of projects.
* Show the Project creation date on its show page. (In 1.8 we plan to
include the option to specify the project start and end dates).
* Fix to a bug where some assets couldn’t be edited if shared across
multiple projects, and the user only belonged to a subset of those projects.

and are described at https://docs.seek4science.org/tech/releases/

Unusual for a patch release, this release requires running the upgrade
script (bundle exec rake seek:upgrade) when upgrading from 1.7.0 as it
includes a database change.

With docker, the upgrade steps at the end of
https://docs.seek4science.org/tech/docker/docker-compose.html need to be
run.

regards,

Stuart & the FAIRDOM team.
