NEW: We now support Single Sign On from YourMembership, for Enterprise groups.
CHANGE: Changed invite link expiry to 14 days.
INTERNAL: Upgraded the kernel on the other replica database machine to see if it helped reduce the unexplained freezes we're seeing.

INTERNAL: Improvements to the admin dashboard involving spammer detection.

INTERNAL: Upgraded the kernel on one of the replica database machines to see if it helped reduce the unexplained freezes we're seeing.

BUGFIX: When converting plain text emails to HTML that contain links with query parameters, we were only linkifying the part of the URL up until the second query parameter.

DOCS: Updates from Nina.
NEW: Each hashtag can now have a footer, which will be included in any message tagged with that hashtag. The footer will also be displayed in the New Post page if the person selects the hashtag from the `Add Tags` dropdown.

NEW: New filter pop-up on the Members page. https://beta.groups.io/g/main/topic/better_member_list_filtering/79469162?p=,,,50,0,0,0::recentpostdate%2Fsticky,,,50,2,0,79469162

CHANGE: The URL structure for individual photos has changed so that the URLs are now stable/refer to photo ids instead of relative placement of the photo in the album.

INTERNAL: Upgraded build system to the latest Go compiler.

CHANGE: Going to the /login page when you are already logged in will keep you logged in. Previously, it forced a logout.
NEW: We are now more strict in what messages we accept from non-members to groups (for those groups configured to accept messages from non-members), in an effort to cut down on spam. Messages from non-members that are determined to be spam will be logged as a `Non-member message` in the Activity Log, like `Non-member XX attempted to send message "MESSAGE SUBJECT" and the message was rejected because it was determined to be spam`.

CHANGE: Changed the chat window template to be less Slack-like and more conversational.
INTERNAL: Fixed bounce processing for "swbell.net", "bellsouth.net", "sbcglobal.net", "att.net", "ameritech.net" domains.
