  `Issue #837 <https://github.com/kiwitcms/Kiwi/issues/837/>`_ (@Prome88)
- Document how to enable public read-only views
- Remove deprecated documentation section about Bugzilla authentication
- Install PostgreSQL libraries in Docker image which makes it easier to
  switch the DB backend without rebuilding the entire image
- Remove npm, libxml2-devel and libxslt-devel from Docker image
- Database engine configuration now respects the ``KIWI_DB_ENGINE`` environment
  variable which defaults to ``django.db.backends.mysql``. This will make it
  easier for admins to change DB engine by updating their ``docker-compose.yml``

- Pin bootstrap-switch to version 3.3.4 in ``package.json``. Fixes
  `Issue #916 <https://github.com/kiwitcms/Kiwi/issues/916/>`_

Refactoring


- Don't use ``Site.objects.get_current()`` because it has an internal cache
  and causes email notifications from tenants to use the wrong URL
- More changes around renaming of TestCaseRun to TestExecution
