+
+Today we have released **version 2.1** of FixMyStreet, with some new features
+and a variety of improvements for users and reusers.
+
+New features include allowing users to hide their own name on reports/updates,
+and a new graph-based /reports page, which you can see in operation on our
+[main UK site](https://www.fixmystreet.com/reports). We also now resize photos
+client-side before uploading, given the increase in very large images these
+days.
+
+Admin improvements include adding an 'inactive' state to categories, so you can
+prevent a category being used for new reports but still have it available in
+filters, various improvements to the inspect form and the new report process
+for inspectors, and an easier way for inspectors to shortlist all reports in
+their view.
+
+Geolocation is back on the alert page, lost sometime last year, and some random
+blank spaces are no longer clickable, hooray!
+
+Development-wise, FixMyStreet now supports Debian stretch and perl 5.24, badly
+configured SMTP options should now be spotted, and we have refactored and
+simplified the CSS used for header/content/navigation. This may mean you can
+simplify overrides in your cobrand. If you wish to have a static front page
+rather than the normal report page, that's now possible by creating an
+`about/homepage.html` template in your cobrand, and cobrands can now easily
+change the new report pin colour.
+
+The test suite now runs each file in a transaction which means it can be run in
+parallel and sped up dramatically; on the other hand, on Travis we added code
+coverage which slowed it down again. 
+
+Two **backwards incompatible** changes that may require changes to your own
+templates if you have customised them:
+
+* The `nav-wrapper-2` class has been removed. If you have a custom footer
+  template, replace that class with 'container'.
+
+* The `/reports` page now uses different generated data. If you have a custom
+  `reports/index.html` template and wish to keep it, you may need to call
+  `update-all-reports` with a `--table` argument to generate the old style
+  data.
