As some of you might have noticed we consistently had problems with the BioMed central Import (Thanks to all who reported problems). As it turned out the problem was not on PubMan site, but due to a bug in the BioMed central interface.

Multiple Sorting in PubMan Exports
One thing I owe to the community since the PubMan Days is the explanation how publication lists that are exported by the Search&Export service can be sorted by more than one index field.
The use case for this is the integration of sorted publication lists into an institute’s homepage.

Please have an eye on the creator roles
We would like to draw your attention to a certain dysfunction that affects the submission within the current PubMan version.
Please note that currently, the creator role of all persons is automatically set to „Author“ when saving/submitting/releasing an item. For organizations the creator role is set to „Editor“.
This problem affects both, the publication creator(s) and the source creator(s).

Downtime on Friday, July 22nd
In consideration of the continuously growing amount of data within PubMan, we need to expand our storage devices.
That’s why the GWDG is going to install new hardware components on the upcoming Friday, July 22nd, from 3:00 to 4:00 p.m. (CET)
During the installation, PubMan has to be shut down and all services won’t be available for one hour maximum.
We apologize for any inconveniences.
The Return of Test-PubMan
After eons of sleep, our PubMan Test Server finally is back and fully operational again.
This environment is supposed to be a sandbox where all interested people are welcome to take a closer look at the system and to try their hands at the various features and functionalities of PubMan.
As we have deployed the latest software version (6.2.8), the test server of course can also be used for demonstration or training activities.

Fortunately, we managed to implement the announced bugfix release for PubMan 6.2 just in time.
The version number thus has climbed up to 6.2.8.
Though the main purpose of this run was the elimination of a number of known bugs and problems, we also included some tiny improvements for our users:
