Hi all, As described in this Jira http://issues.collectionspace.org/browse/CSPACE-4775 UC Berkeley would like to escalate changing four existing calendar dates on the Cataloging screen to be structured dates. - Object Collection Information: Field collection date - Object History and Association Information: Associated date - Textual Inscription: Date - Non-Textual Inscription: Date These were all originally scheduled to be changed for version 2.0, but time ran out. UC Berkeley needs these to be structured dates as soon as possible and is willing to do the work, hopefully in time to make it into the 2.1 release. Do you have data in these calendar date fields already? If so that would require migrating data in order to use version 2.1, so we'd like to know as soon as possible. If you have any concerns about these changes, please send email to the Talk list. Thank you, Chris Chris Hoffman, Ph.D. Manager of Informatics Services IST-Research & Content Technologies, UC Berkeley chris.hoffman@berkeley.edu 510-642-9643

Hi everyone, It's been a while since this was sent to the list, and the work is scheduled for version 2.2, so I wanted to remind you of this upcoming schema change. Please reply to the list if you have data (especially production data) in the four fields in question, or have any other concerns.
