== TL;DR == * Functional maintenance environment invented * Production release made

A number of feature enhancements and bug fixes were deployed to the production https://toolhub.wikimedia.org site on 2022-01-05. This was the first deployment of the production service since 2021-10-25. This long delay was in part due to the maintenance environment problem. With the newly discovered workaround for that issue we were able to run database and Elasticsearch migration tasks to support new functionality.

Features added:

* Tools can now be marked as "favorites" which adds them to a special list visible only to the current user. * Stemming support for English words has been added so that searches are more likely to find relevant tools. * The toolinfo.json schema has been updated to support two new tool types: lua module and template. * Required form fields now show an '*' after the field label. * Adding tools to lists is easier thanks to a new search feature in the UI form.

Bugs fixed:

* Graphs have been fixed to always use a 0 basis for Y axis rendering. * Notifications have been added to explain when a URL is rejected as a duplicate and other URL registration errors. * Orphan toolinfo records are now removed from the catalog when a registered URL is deleted. * Vue components can now wait on the initial asynchronous loading of information about the current user before taking actions. * Many UI messages have been fixed to reactively change when the user selects a new locale. * Changing languages no longer resets state on views which are using tabbed navigation.
