[MediaWiki-l] BlueSpice MediaWiki 3.1 released / Docker Edition

Hello everybody! we released BlueSpice 3.1 a few days ago and the free version is available for download. [1] But there is more! With this release, for the first time, we provide an official Docker version on Docker Hub. For systems that support this container technology, the installation of test and production systems has become extremely simplified. [2] Just a few notes about BlueSpice 3.1. Version 3.1 is a minor release, brings many improvements and interesting new features. [3] == Completely redesigned title section == * Focus on convenience: See and modify relevant page information at a glance * Category handling: Categories are now shown in the title section and can be edited * Quality management: State of a page is displayed and can be changed * Page neighborhood: Subpages and related pages are shown in a breadcrumb navigation and can be easily be explored == UX improvements == * UX audit: Many improvements in iconography, labeling and navigation * Page load masks: Indicator for system activity to create a smoother experience * Fullscreen mode: Switch the wiki to full screen for more space * Accessibility audit: Many improvements regarding accessibility for screen readers == Search == * Better scoring: Several tunings to provide a more natural search result order. E.g. base names have preference over subpages * Flexible autocomplete: It is now possible to use multiple infixes.
