• CHANGE: Got Yahoo Group exports working again.
• INTERNAL: Revamped activity log definitions to make it easier to add new activities.
• CHANGE: Tweaked the default welcome message template to make things more clear (will only be applied to groups created after this).
• CHANGE: In the activity log, changed instances of 'modified' to 'updated' for consistency.
• CHANGE: Revert to previous behavior of treating web posts as new topics.
• BUGFIX: The URL in the emails sent when someone reports a photo were incorrect.
• CHANGE: For Enterprise domains, changed how we do Facebook/Google logins. We now do them via the groups.io domain, to avoid having to whitelist every domain we serve and also because we were running up against a limit with Google in terms of number of domains served.

• CHANGE: If you click the Clear button after filtering archives, it will now take you back to /topics or /messages (as appropriate), instead of keeping you in /search.
• CHANGE: From the activity log, clicking on an added/modified file used to bring you to the enclosing folder. I've added a folder icon next to the file name that does that now, and clicking on the file takes you directly to the file.
• BUGFIX: When viewing an individual +owner message, the pending messages permission was required, which was inconsistent with other pages.
• CHANGE: Changed default subject line for message rejection notices from 'Your message was rejected' to 'Your message was not approved'
• BUGFIX: Fixed screen reader access on the create and edit hashtag pages.
• CHANGE: Wording improvements to the Send Log In Link page (thanks Shal!)
• INTERNAL: Upgraded production to use go 1.11 compiler.
• INTERNAL: Parallelized message generation when viewing /topic or /messages to speed up web response.
• INTERNAL: Added a database index to speed up deleting of topics.
• INTERNAL: Change the database code to make it seamless when doing database schema changes.
• CHANGE: Add group upgrade options for non-profit enterprise pricing, to allow self-service non-profit upgrades.
• CHANGE: Previously we would treat web posts as new topics, regardless of whether they had the same subject as a previous topic. This was different from how we treat email messages, where we combine new messages into existing topics when we can. Now we do the same for web posts.
• INTERNAL: Cleanups of various database structures/repaying some technical debt
