Starting with sessions at the Internet2 Conference, we will discuss recent releases, including LionShare 1.0 Beta, and upcoming versions aimed at improving stability and scalability. We will focus on interoperability with institutions and other integrated tools, as we work towards lowering entry barriers for users.
