5 -**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** In the last few weeks, we have worked hard on a lot of things that are unfortunately not quite ready to be released. As a result the output of this release is limited. Having said that we still bring some key improvements in the Deploy and Manage phase that would make life much easier.
5 +**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** In the last few weeks, we have worked hard on planning the upcoming Q and finishing up features of the last Q. More on that later. On top of that we have several smaller items as a result of our hackathon efforts to present to you.

7 -== **Next generation improvements and bug fixes** ==
7 +== **Announcement - Release Properties** ==
8 +As of the next release (202) we will introduce a completely new way of handling properties for all our clients. In the upcoming weeks we will publish additional information on the process, what changes, and how you best manage your properties as of then within the documentation portal. Should you have any questions in advance please contact us at [[productmanagement@emagiz.com>>mailto:academy@emagiz.com]].

9 -//__Enhanced right-hand view within Deployment Plan context__//
10 -When executing your deployment plan we will show specific log entries of the info category that indicate that a container (i.e. runtime) has started up correctly. On top of that we show the warnings and errors in this overview.
10 +== ** Deploy Architecture - Apply To Environment improvements ** ==
11 +As of this release we will show you a list of all change that are about to be changed once you press "Apply to environment" in Deploy Architecture. This will ensure that it becomes clearer for users, especially those working together in teams, what will change when pressing this button.
11 11  
12 -{{info}}Note that when the JMS container gets restarted connection errors in the logs are a normal thing to witness so keep your eyes peeled for the startup logging on JMS level to gain confidence in the deployment.{{/info}}

15 -To avoid mismatches between various parts of the infrastructure we have improved the timeout configuration on certain deployment plan steps to reduce the chance that these mismatches occur.
15 +== ** Breadcrumb navigation in eMagiz ** ==
16 +With this release we introduce the "breadcrumb" navigation in certain parts of eMagiz. This will mostly be noticed, and have impact, in the Create phase when you are checking out your transformation or system message on flow level. Apart from there the navigation is implemented consistently across the portal for a unified look and feel.

39 39
