5		-**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** In the last few weeks, we have crossed our t's and dotted our i's on the release properties functionality that will impact the day-to-day life of every user working within the platform. The focus of the release blog will consequently also be on this subject. On top of that, we have several smaller feedback items from our hackathon efforts that are now released to you.

7		-== **Release Properties** ==
8		-As of this release, we will introduce a new way of handling properties for all our clients. This change intends to solidify the relationship between a release and a property value. Before, in the current generation architecture, the timing of changing properties was crucial to avoid costly mistakes in Production. On top of that, it could have been clearer whether a property value was indeed updated as it was not linked to something deployed. These considerations allow us to change the property management behavior in our next-generation architecture and our current-generation architecture. There are several fundamental changes compared to the current way of managing your properties. Most notable among these are:
	8	+== **TBD** ==
9	9
10		-* The current properties tab in Deploy will disappear. The new overview of the properties (and their values) can be found under the "Create phase release" in Deploy -> Releases
11		-* Property placeholders (i.e., the names of properties as given in Create) are now automatically created for you. As a result, you don't have to type them twice when working on an integration.
12		-* When adding or editing a property, you can **now** select multiple runtimes for which the property applies. This is mainly beneficial for those running in a double-lane setup or having a distributed landscape of containers.
13		-* A, for most, new concept of a "property release" is introduced. With the help of this functionality, you can easily change a property on Production without having to create an entirely new release in Test and promote it to the Production environment.

24		-== ** Manage - Graphs improvements ~*~* ** ==
25		-As of this release, we will create a condensed view of your metrics when zooming out in the Manage phase graphs. This will significantly improve the performance of the managed graphs as we retrieve and show less fine-grained information when zooming out.

31		-//__Improved editability when testing in eMagiz without Edit rights in Create__//
32		-Without editing rights in the Create phase, you could already do a lot on the level of flow tests in eMagiz. However, there were some oversights we should have noticed during the implementation. These have been fixed, allowing those without edit rights to change the test case's name and description.
	14	+//__Missing properties overview__//
	15	+The missing properties overview has been updated to show the runtimes and flow versions of missing property values.
33	33
34		-//__Improved auditability on Deploy Architecture__//
35		-To improve the audibility of Deploy Architecture, we now also log when someone with Admin rights changes specific functions on this level (i.e., Fixed IP).
	17	+ADD FIGURE
36	36
37		-//__Test your own exported store content__//
38		-We have now allowed testing of your exported work to the store before it gets approved. This will increase the quality of store items we have, and our partners have on offer within the store.
	19	+//__Container version overview__//
	20	+Due to the improved build process for containers, the release versions and container versions will not longer be the same anymore. Therefore we introduce a way where you can look up to see which container versions are linked to a specific release. This can help you to identify if your containers that are running have the right version according to the release.

41	41
42		-//__Improved comparison of flows in the releases overview__//
43		-We have now made it possible to see the differences in the flow versions between the two releases for all three patterns.
	24	+//__Improved deployment process__//
	25	+The improved release build process, as mentioned above, brings another major improvement to the platform. Because container versions will not be updated regularly we can identify during a deployment which container should get a new container version. Only the ones that should get a new version will be deployed and restarted, all other containers will not go down and keep running. This decreases the deployment time and improves the performance.
44	44
	27	+//__Rebuilding of images__//
	28	+Changing the list of flows that should run on a container will now trigger the rebuilding of images.
	29	+
45	45	== **Bug Fixes** ==
46	46
47		-//__Improved validation on XPath header enricher__//
48		-To avoid unexpected behavior when filling in the XPath header enricher component, we have improved the validation on this component.
	32	+//__Runtime metrics processing__//
	33	+The collection and publishing of runtime metrics is no longer synchronized across containers, which improves their processing.
49	49
50		-//__Cancel behavior on flow testing property overview fixed__//
51		-We have ensured that when you press Cancel when editing a property needed in a flow test, the property placeholder will no longer disappear from the list.
	35	+//__Deployment plan__//
	36	+We solved a bug where a deployment step in the execution of the deployment plan could randomly get stuck.
52	52
53		-//__Cancel behavior on flow fragment level when exporting store content__//
54		-We have ensured that when you press Cancel when exporting a flow fragment, the flow fragment will no longer disappear from the list.
	38	+//__View all store items__//
	39	+An issue has been fixed where it was not possible to load more store items in the left panel in the Create phase Flow Designer.
55	55
56		-//__Adding numbers on containers in Deploy Architecture__//
57		-With this release, we have made the first step in giving a clear overview of how many integrations for a certain runtime (i.e., container) are in your active release.
	41	+//__Out of memory behavior__//
	42	+We improved the out of memory behavior of runtimes. Runtimes will now always restart when an out of memory error occurs.
58	58
	44	+//__Max fetch size__//
	45	+In the Flow Designer, we improved the help text of the advanced option of ‘max fetch size’ for the Mail Inbound Adapter component to better describe how that option affects the component's behavior.
