We are glad to announce a new major Bacularis release 5.0.0. Changes in this
version are mainly related to modern security functions and to installation
process.

On the security side we added support for logging in with U2F hardware keys.
The security keys are used in the second factor of the authentication.
We reorganized the account settings page to provide better interface for
managing 2FA methods. Now users can choose which 2FA method they want to use
and they can easily switch between: time-based authenticators (TOTP) and
security keys (U2F).

For the installation process, we prepared changes in the install wizard. This
is for helping new Bacularis users and also new Bacula users in first contact
with Bacula-related software. This is important for us to encourage users to
try Bacula. We try to do it in various way and making Bacularis functions
easier is one of them.

Besides new functions and improvements, new Bacularis 5.0.0 is also the bugfix
release. Specially worth to mention is a fix to restore using copy jobs reported
by the Community and also fixes to the install wizard.
