Beta modules

Our GitHub “Loris-Trunk” repository has been renamed “Loris”. We recommend re-forking. There should be no impact on SSH keys.
Schema updates: MySQL patches for this release are stored in SQL/Archive/Pre-14.10/ subdirectory. Be sure to apply patches in order from oldest merged, to most recent.
Ensure the Loris “admin” superuser has been granted every permission, by running patch SQL/Archive/Pre-14.10/2014-10-17-AdminAllPermissions.sql
There is now a configuration module for this release of LORIS. For more information, see the Configuration module Readme.
Be sure to run the script tools/config_to_db.php (after applying MySQL patches)
Note new tags in config.xml (e.g. sandbox)
Imaging Browser: Jiv viewer no longer supported (link still present)
Smarty3 installation required

In project/config.xml, sandbox tag should be nested inside parent dev tagset (#779)
Instrument Manager and Data Integrity Flag modules (in Beta) are in the codebase but not in the LorisMenu table by default.
