Wed, 04/10/2017 - 15:21 -- Elonisas Webmaster

This release makes a few additions based on current experience with CERIF usage. On the other hand, the use of some attributes in the model is deprecated - these attributes will go away in a future release. The more appropriate way of expressing the information now is using a classification or federated identifiers.

See below for a detailed list of changes.

Update on forthcoming euroCRIS events

The presentation "Updates from the euroCRIS Board" delivered by the euroCRIS President Jan Dvořák at the end of yet another successful euroCRIS membership meeting an the Provinciehuis Vlaams-Brabant in Leuven offered information on the venues (and some of the dates) for forthcoming euroCRIS events.

The next euroCRIS meeting will be the Nov 25-27 Autumn 2025 Strategic Membership Meeting (SMM2025), to be held at the İzmir Institute of Technology (IZTECH) in Türkiye. The host for next year's CRIS2026 Conference will be the University of Azores in Portugal.

We are keeping in mind the previously announced host for the CRIS2026 Conference, the University of Novi Sad in Serbia, as a host for future euroCRIS events.

Call for proposals for these events will be put out to euroCRIS members as the meetings draw nearer.
