Release Date: 23.07.2018

This release introduces new mindmaps which longer depend on Flash technology.
Also, it further adds to the recently introduced CKM REST API, which can be regarded as a replacement for the old SOAP-based CKM webservices.
In addition, it contains a myriad of finetuned fuinctionality and speed and scalability improvements - please see the detailed issues below.
