In brief:
* You will need to upgrade the database structure using epadmin upgrade,
  see below for more details.
* The new JSON export plugin exposes all the metadata from on EPrint, if
  you disabled the XML export you may wish to disable this too. 

Views
* New config. style for views (old style still works too)
* Views "menu" pages can now be split up, eg. A-C, D-F, G-I etc. (new
  default Author view uses this option)
* Fixed a bug where bad view URLs created huge pages and ate memory.
* Removed bogus xmlns attributes. 

JSON
* Added both an export plugin, plus a CGI script to allow javascript
  callbacks (which allows mashups to work on your data).
* To turn on the callback script to allow mashups etc. set
  $c->{json}->{enable} = 1;
  in the config. This is set by default on new repositories.
* The syntax of the callback script is
  /cgi/json?callback=my_function&eprintid=23
* The data exposed by the JSON export plugin is the same as for EP3XML
  so if you have sensitive data in your records, you may wish to
  disable it, and not enable the callback script. 

Unicode
* Several fixes to issues with encoding. 

OAI
* Added support for custom OAI sets, which helps us meet the DRIVER spec.
* Fixed a bug where GetRecord returned records it shouldn't. 

FTP
* This is an experiemental tool. It is not recommended you run this on a
  production server without chatting with us first. However it is pretty
  cool. 

Toolbox
* addDocument now returns the numerical ID of the document rather than
"OK". 

Input Workflow
* Multiple fields can now contain <help> and <name> in their sub fields.
* Can now use Subject input component with other fields in a workflow 

Database
* The schema ID has been increased as we have standardised that all parts
  of a name field will be NULL or set, not a mixture. Upgrading the DB
  using epadmin will fix this scruffy data, but the resulting database
  structure will be still compatible with earlier 3.1.* releases, but if
  you downgrade you'll need to modify the "version" table back to 3.1.1 

Other
* Whitespace now auto-stripped from DOIs & Pubmed IDs.
* Fixed issue in encoding paths for documents with subdirectories.
* Fixed autocomplete javascript under HTTPS.
