ESB 17.12 Released

Our final release of ESB for 2017 may not contain any headline-grabbing new features, however it does include a number of user-requested modifications - in particular to help streamline the System Configuration module.  This release also continues the trend towards MVC conversion, with the System Configuration module's Closure Reasons editor having been converted for this release.  The new MVC-based dialogs should be more responsive and offer a more consistent layout.  As always we'd love to hear your feedback, so please let us know in the ESB Agile Discussion Forums.

Finally we'd like to take this opportunity to thank all our customers during 2017, and we look forward to an even more exciting 2018.
