[oxse-announce] Open-Xchange releases OX App Suite v8.25

[Open-Xchange Server Edition Maintenance Announcements]

Dear Customers of Open-Xchange,

This new release provides an update for OX App Suite v8.25. With every release of Open-Xchange's products we try to enhance functionality, improve stability, refine the user experience, and make operations easier.

Key Enhancement in OX App Suite v8.25

- Redesign of the "Connect your device" wizard - The current wizard uses a layout introduced years ago. To let it look more up to date and fix some issues in the navigation we will introduce a redesigned variant. The new variant will use a breadcrumb navigation and a nice header graphic.

General Information - Breaking Change

- Warning: The components 'core-documentconverter' and 'core-imageconverter' now have a dependency on Redis. Both of these components need to utilize the same Redis instance and configuration as the 'core-mw' component. This configuration can be added to the 'values.yaml' file. You can duplicate the entire 'core-mw.redis' entry for 'core-documentconverter.redis' and 'core-imageconverter.redis'.
