Some smaller changes:

• The mass vehicle name updater in the Admin tool was broken, now it works

Bag Database v2.3

This version has a number of changes to the database under the hood. Changes that users will care about include:

• LZ4 compressed chunks in bag files are now supported
• User sessions no longer time out after long periods of inactivity
• A bug was fixed that would cause the DB to fail to read a bag's messages if the bag was still being written to disk while it was scanned

Other changes include:

• Using Liquibase to handle database versioning and migration
• Using spatial columns for storing data for bags and their positions
• Dropping MySQL support
• Switching to H2 for the embedded database
• Removing Hibernate Search support; it wasn't actually being used and just made things slower

Bag Database v2.2

• Adding the ability to view the first image on a sensor_msgs/Image or sensor_msgs/CompressedImage topic
• Minifying Javascript for faster load times
• Adding a "Copy Link" button when right-clicking on bag files
• Fixing some Javascript syntax errors

• Adding Travis CI support
• Expanding on GPS-related documentation

Bag Database v2.0

This is the first public release of the Bag Database. Docker is the preferred way of starting up a server, but a WAR file is provided for anybody who wants to try setting it up in their own application server.
