BETA RELEASE 1.0.0 - May 31, 2011

This tool is free-standing and allows the creation of METS from a folder of items. It additionally allows the user to enter all of the bibliographic information, and assign page names and divisions to the structure map. 

This windows application can be downloaded in the following formats:

This latest version includes the following changes:

	- User can now enter more default values, including individual creator, 
	  default rights, and default funding note

Major changes to the preferences form accessible through the main menu Options --> Preferences option

	  of each option
	- Some standard add-ons show their own defaults here if selected
	- User can now manage standard lists, such as METS Record Status, Resource Types, 
	  and Institution lists

Major changes to the way templates work 
	- Templates now just dictate the "base" tabs during editing and creation of metadata
	- Add-Ons add additional pages and corresponding sections of metadata in the resulting METS file
	- Some standard add-ons additionally have defaults which appear under the preferences form

Added support for new metadata schemes 
	- VRA Core elements encoded as an extension schema to MODS
	- DarwinCore Simple DataSet to encode zoological taxonomic information
	- Florida State University schema for encoding Electronic Theses and Dissertation information

Major strides in simplifying template to effectively work with Dublin Core as the main bibliographic schema as well as MODS and MarcXML
