[Unity-idm-discuss] Release 1.2.0

[Krzysztof B. <k.b...@ic...>]

Dear All,

Release 1.2.0 was delayed, but finally it is available.
It features a great amount of bugfixes and couple of new features. The 
most important changes:

* MySQL support is fixed.

* The login sessions support is complete (the previous versions had this 
pretty limited).  This allowed for introducing a couple of new features 
and will allow for more in the future. In particular:
** The standard and popular targeted transient and persistent identity 
types are available and can be used with SAML endpoints.
** A new concept of authentication realm allows for configuring login 
settings of several endpoints once, at the same time enabling 
cross-endpoint single sign on and logout.
** Login sessions are shared between redundant instances of Unity
** It is possible to turn on a 'remember me' authentication feature.

* An interface to edit message templates was added. Message templates 
are now typed and can be used only if matching.

* Translation profiles can be edited with a new GUI of the Admin UI. It 
is much easier than the JSON file editing.

* A new identity type was added to cover an opaque identifier, typically 
imported from external IdP.
