• This release fixes a bug where no new projects could be created when one of the original Jira statuses (Open, In Progress, Reopened, Resolved or Closed) had been renamed prior to the app's installation.
• Agile Hive workflows were not created due to missing statuses, so project creation failed with an error message. Agile Hive now ensures that all needed statuses are created instead on relying on them being present on the Jira system.
• The plugin has to be deactivated and reactivated after upgrading for the workflows to be created.

• Reduce Logging in Case of missing or expired License
• Fix (harmless but annoying) Exceptions during Installation

Bugfixes

• The status of the Risks is now correct in the reports' Risk Panel

Improvements

Known Problems

• If you upgrade from an older Agile Hive release, the Custom-Fields "Actual Business Value" and "Planned Business Value" are still text fields and can't be searched for. In the next release they will be converted to Fibonacci-Sequence Number-Dropdown fields and this problem will be resolved.
• If you can't view Issues after the update and instead see error messages similar to `Error rendering '…'. Please contact your Jira administrators`, please restart your Jira-Instance to resolve the bug. It originates from Jiras inability to accept changes in CustomField types' signature between Plugin Updates.
