0.8

Schema changes:
- New tables UserGroup, UserGroupMembership and PagePermission.

Changed user page URLs (contributions page) from /u/user to /@user.
/manage/ is now a list of all managing options, including export/import and the brand new /manage/accounts.
TOC is now shown in pages when screen width is greater than 960 pixels.

Now logged-in users have an “Edit” button below the first heading. All users can access page history by clicking the last modified time.
Added a built-in installer (app_init.py). You still need to manually create site.conf.

Added Flask-Login and Flask-WTF dependencies in order to implement user logins.
Added python-i18n as a dependency. Therefore, i18n changed format, using JSON files now.

Now you can leave a comment while changing a page’s text. Moreover, a new revision is created now only in case of an effective text change.

markdown_strikethrough extension is no more needed. Now there are two new built-in extensions: StrikethroughExtension and SpoilerExtension (the last one is buggy tho).

Added app version to site footer.
