2.2.0 - 2019-05-09

Added

Changed/Fixed

• Bug preventing notices submitted via OldChill from being imported into Lumen

• More extensive caching of expensive fragments

• Rubocop and coverage checking in build process

2.1.4.1 - 2018-08-16

Hotfixes the 2.1.4 release by adding an index to Notice.created_at. This should help with extremely low load times for the home page (Skylight asserts that the vast majority of the time is spent on an SQL query that sorts on this unindexed column).
