FEATURE: The dictionary for gender/name recognition now comprises over 66โฏ400 entries.
๐
The overview of technical and organisational measures has been expanded and updated.
SECURITY: votesUP now also provides a security.txt file.
๐
FEATURE: Once a user has requested a password reset and saved the new password, they can select to be signed in directly without having to re-enter their login details.
STABILITY: Code improvements for list-based votings.
SECURITY: When a user logs in successfully, new password hashes are re-created for the database to automatically update old hashes and to ensure that, if an event is duplicated, there is no technical indication that a password may have been used more than once.
FEATURE: The dictionary for gender/name recognition now comprises over 66โฏ200 entries.
BUGFIX: In case the speaker lists were only open to organisers, participants were sometimes still able to add their names to a list via the welcome page. This has now been fixed.
๐
FEATURE: The dictionary for gender/name recognition now comprises over 64โฏ500 entries.
๐
SECURITY: votesUPโs security systems had mistakenly identified the SSLlabs.com testing platform as an attacker and blocked certain actions. This resulted in the test results being distorted. This issue has now been resolved.
SECURITY: We have increased the length of the TLS encryption keys to 3072 bits (RSA) in order to enhance the security of the connection without placing an excessive load on servers and user devices.
๐
When limits are increased for โdigital absentee votingsโ, organisers receive an information email containing important guidance. This guidance has been expanded and clarified.
The template for data processing agreements has been amended in one section: under โ8. Compensationโ, we now explain more clearly that we may charge an expense allowance if requests for information and cooperation exceed the legally required scope, particularly for free events. Previously, it sounded as though we would always charge for expenses, which is not the case. In addition, the readability of the agreement in German language has been slightly improved through more logical gender-neutral language.
I18N: The translations into several languages (Albanian, Armenian, Georgian, Catalan, Croatian and Serbian) have been further completed.
๐
STABILITY: Improvements to the efficiency of the database structure
FEATURE: The dictionary for gender/name recognition now comprises over 64โฏ400 entries.
๐
FEATURE: The dictionary for gender/name recognition now comprises over 64โฏ200 entries.
๐
FEATURE: When duplicating events, the configuration of permitted types of procedural motions can be retained.
BUGFIX: Minor corrections.
๐
FEATURE: The organiser may restrict the types of procedural motions that are admissible.
STABILITY/BUGFIX: The configuration option to allow new voters to join an ongoing voting now works in all cases. Previously, only certain combinations of settings were permitted, which were difficult for organisers to keep track of.
๐
FEATURE: Events that use passwordless tokens for login have been upgraded โ participants can now use them to log in multiple times. However, for confidentiality reasons, the following features are not available in events using passwordless tokens: chat between participants and the direct transfer of voting rights to other participants.
FEATURE: For each brainstorming session, organisers can configure whether guests are allowed to participate or whether contributing is restricted to voters and full participants.
FEATURE: The dictionary for gender/name recognition now comprises over 64โฏ000 entries.
BUGFIX: The automatic token generation did not follow the specified event language. Instead, all accounts were created with โDeutsch (Sie)โ. This error has now been fixed.
SECURITY: The default length for new tokens is now 10 characters for tokens with a password and 14 characters for tokens without a password. The minimum length is now 6 and 10 characters respectively.
๐
FEATURE: The dictionary for gender/name recognition now comprises over 63โฏ700 entries.
DESIGN: In brainstorming sessions, a card note posted by a regular participant can now only be deleted if it has not been marked with a favourite star. Only the organisers now have general deletion rights.
STABILITY: The detection of inappropriate posts in brainstorming sessions has been improved.
๐
FEATURE: FEATURE: Ongoing votes can now be cancelled and reset immediately if necessary. In the past, it was only possible to close them in the usual way and then, if necessary, withdraw the result.
FEATURE: In addition to open and secret votes, there is now a third option: โroll-call votesโ. These work in principle like open votes, but the individual votes are recorded in the minutes and in the results email.
FEATURE: Individual results or ballot papers from secret and open votes can be deleted if only the overall result is to be retained.
DESIGN: The display of ongoing and completed votes is now slightly clearer, as additional functions have been moved to a context menu.
SECURITY: Various access rights within an event have been revised.
A11Y: Several clickable elements in the organiser panel have been made more accessible.
I18N: Improvements to several language versions, particularly Danish, English and French.
FEATURE: Until now, votes configured so that their results were not visible to the organisers or election observers could only be made visible to all participants directly in the results display. It is now possible to retrospectively enable the audit view for organisers and election observers.
FEATURE: The automatic minutes now record deliberate logouts by voters and full participants.
DESIGN: The minutes view has been slightly revised to make it clearer.
๐
STABILITY: If the organiser had prohibited participants from viewing the list of participants, they could still view the list of eligible voters when the voting results were released. This was inconsistent and has therefore now been disabled.
๐
FEATURE: The dictionary for gender/name recognition now comprises over 63โฏ300 entries.
DESIGN: When displaying the results, votesUP shows how many votes cast would correspond to three-quarters. Previously, only half and two-thirds were displayed.

FEATURE: The dictionary for gender/name recognition now comprises over 62โฏ800 entries.
๐
BUGFIX: When logging in, participants incorrectly received the message that their device was outdated. This problem has been fixed.

FEATURE: When organisers send invitations and similar emails via votesUP, they now receive feedback not only in the case of undeliverable messages, but also in the case of absence notifications.
DESIGN: If eligible voters transfer all of their votes to another person, they will now receive the status โFull participant without voting rightsโ (previously they were changed to โGuestโ) in order to continue to have access to all content of the event.
FEATURE: The dictionary for gender/name recognition now comprises over 62โฏ300 entries.
DESIGN: Partner events receive more comprehensive information about their benefits.

๐
FEATURE: The dictionary for gender/name recognition now comprises over 61โฏ400 entries.
๐

The Terms of Use have been revised and now replace those from October 2024. The following changes have been made:
It is now specified more specifically what compensation will be paid in the event of system unavailability if fee-based events were agreed during this period.
The obligation to enter larger events in the capacity planner has been removed, as server resources are managed automatically via the limit increases.
Free cancellation for standby service is now only possible up to two weeks before the agreed date (previously: one week).
Addition to free cancellation options for live support, unless individual agreements have been made.
Heading for โ5) Liabilityโ has been rephrased as โResponsibility for contentโ.

๐
INFO: Voting weights above 100 per account are now subject to a fee. Voting weights of up to 7500 per account are possible.

FEATURE: The dictionary for gender/name recognition now comprises over 59โฏ100 entries.
