**Serve static assets via CDN**
This release adds support for serving static files through a CDN, rather
than having them served by the datatracker webserver. This will both
offload the datatracker webserver and speed up retrieval of static files.
By default, all external static assets (such as jquery, bootstrap,
font-awesome, qunit, select2) are served via CDN, while the datatracker's
own static files are not. It is expected that the more stable datatracker
static files will be migrated to be served via CDN also, over time.
This release also adds support for easy update of external javascript, font,
and css libraries by means of a new management command 'bower_install' which
makes use of the 'bower' package manager. Use of this management command
requires that bower be installed on the development platform.
When deploying this and following releases, a new action is needed in order
to make the appropriate static content available for serving via CDN:
After checking out the release and creating the symlink to the new release
in the datatracker deployment directory, it is now also necessary to create
a new symlink within a directory which is served through the CDN:
$ ln -s /a/www/ietf-datatracker/$releasenumber/static/lib /www/www6s/lib/dt/$releasenumber
A note about that has been added to the README file in the datatracker
deployment directory.
