As a Site Template Administrator: template propagations are run completely in the background and background tasks are executed in a sequence. The LAR from the Site Template export is cached, so different Sites can reuse it.

• LayoutSetPrototypeMergeBackgroundTaskExecutor always uses the latest Template version for the propagation.
• If there is already a queued background task for the Site, we don’t create a new one.
• If there is a background task in progress, we only create a new background task if the Template was modified.

• Deletion of property upgrade.log.context.name. Now all upgrade related log lines are automatically tagged with the key upgrade.component, which provides more meaningful information.
• Upgrade Report is now compatible also with upgrade on startup, and it can be printed as Log Thread Context information.
• Upgrades log the result and the type of upgrade that has taken place after all the upgrade processes finish.
• New mBean available with upgrade on startup to obtain real time information about the status and the result of the upgrade.

Creation of a new property called upgrade.report.dl.storage.size.timeout that specifies the number of seconds that the upgrade report generation will wait for calculating the DL size before timing out. This property is set to 10 by default but it can be modified in the portal-ext.properties file.

Kaleo Forms was already in maintenance mode. It is now being moved to deprecated, so it can be removed at the same time as DDL in about a year. This solution is being replaced by Objects, Workflow, and Form Container Fragments.

The portlets that are in the Contacts module will be deprecated.

These are:

1. Contacts Center
2. Members
3. My Contacts
4. Profile

In the first step, the modules were pushed to the maintenance mode.

These modules are obsolete ones and are no longer being used. They have been moved to deprecate and later it will be removed.

A new out-of-the-box (OOTB) email notification template based on Objects. This template will be automatically sent to the order creator when an order status changes to 'pending'.

The notification includes:

• Order number

• Order date

• Account name

• Shipping address

• Order item summary

• Order total

We will move away from Commerce notifications and deprecate them and we will use Objects for the new ones.
