[EP-tech] EPrints 2.3.0 Released

I have decided it's time to bite the bullet and release 2.3.0! It is 
still not fully documented and I'm sure we'll have the usual round of 
minor issues and see 2.3.1 within a week.

However, I've addressed most of the major bugs found in the beta's with 
the exception of

accents in XML::DOM
(solution, use XML::GDOME instead)

Very recent versions of MySQL require a CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE priv. to 
be set, but earlier versions of MySQL give an error if you set it. I've 
not yet figured out how to detect MySQL version reliably yet, so you 
may have to do a "GRANT" by hand.

Binary logging issue. The new indexing system runs in the background 
always reindexing the tables. This creates HUGE incremental mysql logs. 
To disable it edit /etc/my.cnf

Have fun. Keep me posted on sucesses and problems.
