Hi All,
First feedback is that the email notification of the Testing Release is great. The old version was always a bit dull and on my mobile it always ended up with dark writing on a dark background.
Now the email notification looks the same on my desktop and my mobile and is much more eye catching.
On the top of the WUI page the IPFire_ has replaced the fiery penguin but the underscoring indicating that it is a link ends up going above the underscore character. Was that intended? It's not a big thing and I can live with it no problems but it did just look a bit peculiar at first glance.
The upgrade process went fine, including the reboot. Everything cam back with no issues.
Will now start to look at the various screens and test things out.
Regards, Adolf.

Ignore my comment. I had to refresh the browser page as it was keeping most of it from the cache. I had not seen all the changes previously due to the cache.
Not as simple as refreshing the browser page. One of my systems now has the full new version but the other is still showing mostly the old version with just the tux icon changed.

Ah I got you now…
I was wondering what we can do about this… Browsers will definitely cache the old CSS and so we might actually show a lot of garbage until things get refreshed.
A lazy solution could simply be to rename the CSS file. That way, browsers definitely will fetch it again. Otherwise, they should actually check every time if the content they have is actually current as we do not send any long time caching headers. But some people like to break RFCs in favour of “performance”.

Hi,
One thing I noticed with the Core Update 183 Testing announcement. It doesn't announce the EOL of the Icinga addon and its removal in Core Update 185 as we discussed in the last Video Call meeting.

Thank you for the reminder… I will add that.
I am currently quite buried in a lot of things that I am trying to handle simultaneously. So, please, if things don’t look right, let me know :)

Hi All,
Have been exercising CU183 Testing. Everything has gone fine.
I tested out my existing OpenVPN RW and N2N connections and they worked fine.
Created new RW and N2N connections. The RW worked without any problems.
The N2N connection worked but the client end download icon and status area are not working. This is nothing to do with CU183 Testing. This comes from the fix I did for bug 11048 and therefore has been present since CU181.
I have created a new bug entry for this (13548) which I have assigned to myself. I have looked at the code and have figured out what the problem is and will create a patch to test and fix it.
Everything else that I have tested on CU183 has worked without issues. I have not found any issue related to CU183 changes.
A very quiet update.
Regards, Adolf.

Thank you for the feedback.
I actually spent quite a lot of time on these because those emails should look decent enough to get people onto the website. There is now actually two versions of CSS that we are shipping: One in light and one in dark mode.
I have however seen email clients that still don’t show those emails anywhere near what they are supposed to look like.
Now the email notification looks the same on my desktop and my mobile and is much more eye catching.
Very good!

I don’t quite understand. Are you expecting the header to be a link?
