<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">The PTFS Harley release is based
off community code as of about last October (plus several subsequent bugfixes),
and integrates a lot of development we have done. Those features have been
released to community, but not in time to make the 3.2 release. The Harley
release does not include new development added to head after October, such as
the BibLibre acquisitions features. When the 3.2 release is final (it’s in
beta now), it will have those features but not most of the Harley ones.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">The ultimate goal is to integrate
everything, but that will take a while. Between our list of roughly 70 Harley
features (not to mention new development under way) and the 400-odd features
that BibLibre has waiting, it’s a long process to integrate and test
everything.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Your choice for the immediate
future really depends on whether you need the Harley features (mostly written
for public libraries) or the 3.2 features.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Hello,</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">I am a
little unclear on the Koha stable version releases. The current stable
release is v.3.0.6, but 3.2 is on its way? What differentiates these
versions from Harley?</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman","serif""> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">I am
running Koha 3.0001005 but have not yet gone live with it. I wonder if we
should just upgrade now to the newest version, or wait for 3.2? I would
hate to roll out the new system to my library users, then 6 months down the
road feel pressured to upgrade. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman","serif""> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">I
welcome any suggestions. Thanks!</span></p>
