From [email protected]:

• Allow an SDO Liason Manager to send outgoing liaison from any IETF
  Entity to his SDO.

• Allow the secretariat to send liaisons on behalf of another user.

• On login, retrieve the person record related to the login from the
  legacy tables of non IESG logins. Provides the link between login name
  and person listed in the liaison manager table. Fixes #576.

• Refined handling of the To: and From: address lists when the Liaison
  Manager is also a WG Chair or AD.

From [email protected]:

• Add a clean_whitespace filter in some places to get rid of any newlines
  embedded in document titles. Fixes a problem with bad email headers
  in announcements related to documents with newlines embedded in the title.

• Don't try to send out mail which has no recipients. Fixes a crash when
  trying to send announcements related to drafts which have an empty
  email notes to field.

• Fix typo in method calls to send email, fixes a crash when submitting
  liaison statements.

• Renamed LiaisonDetail.taken_care field to action_taken.
  Miscellaneous associated fixes. Enhanced liaison-related admin pages.

Note: Deploying this release requires an additional steps to create
a new column in a table. This is done as a South migration
(see http://south.aeracode.org/ for more info on South):
