Enhancing DCAT support in CKAN (DCAT-AP v3, scheming integration, and more)
A review of the recent developments in CKAN's DCAT support, and how you can get involved
We released a new version of CKAN today - 1.3.3. It provides users with another three weeks of progress - a few useful additions and bugfixes. I've included the full changelog below, but the most interesting features are some security added to editing Groups and Package Relationships, and a useful new API for seeing who has edited a package.
