[EP-tech] Re: Editoring speed problem and Review queue option

Thank you for the advice, Yuri. 

It would be very good if the speed problem could be solved, and if I get some indication that this can and will be done, we can wait for this solution. As I said, it is only recently that we tracked down what we believe is the cause of the slow speed in review work.

I should say that we are still running on EPrints 3.3.10, because the upgrade to 3.3.14 involves upgrading the Linux system and we have been a bit reluctant to do this before we had to. But we have plans to do the upgrade soon, to be better able to use the Bazaar options Coversheets and IRstats 2.

Isn't better to fix the slowness? i wouldn't depend, on big projects, on
plugins found on Bazaar if I'm not sure they're well mantained.
