[Unity-idm-discuss] Unity 4 released

[Krzysztof B. <kb...@un...>]

Dear Subscribers,

It took significantly more than we hoped, but finally it's arrived: the 
4th major version of Unity was released yesterday.

Unity 4 introduces a completely new, fully rewritten web User Interface 
using modern technologies.

This is a significant technical step forward for the application, 
allowing us to enhance the user experience with lightweight widgets and 
improve compatibility with various browser plugins and tools.

The change in web technology also requires adaptation of branding and UI 
customizations. See the update instructions in the Unity Manual for 
details.

Besides technology and look and feel updates, Unity 4 also brings many 
other changes:

  * HomeUI has been generally refreshed. User credentials management is
    now more user-friendly. HomeUI also has a more lightweight design,
    making it easier to customize, brand, and embed.
  * The minimum Java version is now 17.
  * The UNICORE endpoint was removed since it is no longer needed by
    newer UNICORE versions.
  * The demo CA and server certificate have been updated.
