> 
> The style of the default archive has been overhauled to be neater and 
> make better use of stylesheets. See http://demoprints.eprints.org/ for a 
> look at the new style.
> 
> This release adds the option to make required file formats depend on the 
> type of eprint, rather than have one setting for the entire archive. 
> This means that in one archive an eprint about a book may not require 
> any formats at all, one about a presentation may require powerpoint, and 
> a normal article require PDF.
> 
> Version 2.3.0 to 2.3.6 of EPrints required the "libapreq" library, this 
> library proved difficult for some users to install, so in response to 
> our users comments, from 2.3.7 is no longer used.
> 
> Also 2.3.7 sees the addition of a XSLT style sheet to makes human 
> readable view of the OAI interface in Internet Explorer or Mozilla 
> browsers. eg. http://eprints.soton.ac.uk/perl/oai2?verb=Identify
