The Baked Alaska release of GroupServer mostly consists of changes to the email verification system.

  • Error handling is improved. Following an old verification link will show a suggestion to view your profile, rather than an Unexpected Error page. In addition the corner cases of a missing verification ID and broken ID are handled.
  • The Verification page now more closely conforms to Web standards.
  • The verification code (gs.profile.email.verify) is now easier to understand and extend.

In addition the site homepage has been modified. Now the groups and profile image of a logged in user are shown. This should make groups easier to find.

Work is now starting on GroupServer 11.02 — Tartufo Nibbled in Polite Company.
