Wolf status

Wolf (RPM 3.6) is coming along nicely. We've got the first build of the import progress and form copy features up right now in-house for testing.

  • Import progress - Shows a status bar while an import is running including the estimated time remaining. Imports can be stopped, left running and returned to, and there's a new "Recent imports" page to see currently running and recently finished or stopped imports. This is very useful for knowing what's going on when doing a large import and for us to better diagnose future errors people might have with the import.
  • Start a copy - Start a new form with the same field values and participants of an existing form.
No deployment date yet, but likely sometime in June. The finalized date will be announced here first.
