New release Bacularis 2.6.0

[ganiuszka]

Hello Everybody,

We are pleased to announce a new Bacularis version 2.6.0. This is a new feature and bug fix release. In this version we are providing the data views function that enables to define own views with own filters for job, client, storage, pool and volume pages. This function significantly helps to organize the web interface and tailor it to your needs. We encourage to watch a video guide that explains it. Link to the guide you can find below.

Second change in the new release is making consistent default sorting for data selection lists. Now Bacularis uses natural case-insensitive sorting order.

From the fixes side we fixed current bugs reported by the Community. At the end we added some general minor improvements. More detailed information you can find in the changelog.

We would like to thank you to everybody involved in reporting problems with Bacularis, preparing translations, requesting ideas or helping in any other way. Every this help is important for us. We are not capable to do everything at once, but we are progressing.
