To keep on top of security patches, the OS and version of Java were upgraded.

Additionally, a dynamically-scaling server farm was deployed that will respond to changes in demand. This necessitated changes in the deployment scripts to support dynamic load balancing. Additionally, some parts of the server code had to be rearchitected to work better across multiple servers.

Tightened up the storage of system log files to reduce the required disk space, and accelerated the deletion of temporary uploads.

The list of sent emails now includes a synopsis of the From/To/Cc/Bcc addresses (i.e., so you can see at a glance who sent the email, and to whom.

Welcome messages that are sent out either upon login creation or by going to “Account” | “Logins” | “Welcome Messages” are now included in the archive emails.

Welcome messages to parents/youth/other participants now can have two-deep CC recipients added, so you can ensure that you are always compliant with SC policy. The selection of CC recipients defaults to those logins with the “is a two-scouter contact” property, but can be customized. The list of CC recipients for Welcome Messages is remembered between sessions.

When composing an email, there is now the option to specify that it is a shared draft. This means that other members with the “can send emails” login permission can view/edit/send your draft. Drafts are now visually highlighted in the list of emails to draw your attention to unfinished work.

Additionally, a couple of bugs were fixed relating to the (de)selection of recipients on the CC line.

• SS-3118: When a source of a subscription event is deleted, revert the event to a fully-editable local copy and provide useful highlighting/text about the deletion and possible options
