# Welcome to the new Pootle 2.7.3 final

Not yet released

Bugfix release for 2.7.2.

## Changes in Requirements

- Django >= 1.7.10, < 1.8
- Translate Toolkit >= 1.13.0
- Python >= 2.7, < 3.0
- Redis >= 2.8.4
- Django transaction hooks
- Unix-based operating system.

## Major Changes

- Pulled latest translations.
- Added support for Elasticsearch-based external Translation Memory servers.
- Cleaned up connection logic for Translation Memory servers
- Added checks for misconfigured Translation Memory servers

Below we provide much more detail. These are by no means exhaustive, view the git log for complete information.

## Details of changes

- The editor for static pages now highlights the content’s markup and displays a live preview of the rendered contents (issue 3346, issue 3766).
- Pulled latest translations.
- `update_tmserver`:
  - Renamed `--overwrite` to `--refresh`.
  - Translations from disabled projects must be explicitly included with `--include-disabled-projects`.
  - Added support for Elasticsearch-based external Translation Memory servers, which can be populated from translation files. This effectively brings the ability to display TM results from different TM servers, sorting them by their score.
- `POOTLE_TM_SERVER`:
  - The `default` TM server has been renamed to `local`. Make sure to adjust your settings.
  - Added a new `WEIGHT` option to raise or lower the TM results score for each specific TM server.
- `import`:
  - Added a new `--user` to allow setting of user to attribute changes to on file import.
- The Apertium MT backend has been dropped.
- Report string errors form subject and body can be overriden.
- InnoDB is the only accepted MySQL backend. Deployments using MyISAM must migrate to either MySQL (InnoDB) or PostgreSQL.
- Close a database connection before and after each rqworker job once it exceeds the maximum age to imitate Django’s request/response cycle.
- Language managers can now edit their language’s special characters.

...and lots of refactoring, new tests, cleanups, improved documentation and of course, loads of bugs were fixed.
