[ckan-discuss] CKAN 1.3.3 released

Fri Apr 8 11:16:21 BST 2011

We released a new version of CKAN today - 1.3.3. It provides users
with another three weeks of progress - a few useful additions and
bugfixes. I've included the full changelog below, but the most
interesting features are some security added to editing Groups and
Package Relationships, and a useful new API for seeing who has edited
a package.
