We released Dataverse versions 3.5 and 3.51 in June and July of 2013. New features of these versions include:
- (3.5) Initial support of ingest of R data files.
- (3.5) Faceted search for Studies.
- (3.5) Sub-networks for facilitating searching and organizing specific groups of Dataverses.
- (3.5.1) Ability to request access to restricted files on a file-by-file basis (rather than the entire study).

We are currently working on version 3.6, which will include:
- Initial implementation of Data Deposit API, with SWORDv.2 compliance.

- Handling of ordinals in R ingest.
- Improvements to UI and user experience based upon Usability Study.
This released is planned for August 2013.
