The last few weeks we’ve been heads down on DocumentCloud work, so no new user-facing features this past week. Want to work on transparency tools of your own? Join us Tuesday nights in Cambridge as we work on our Code for Boston project, GovLens.

Last week, we pushed some new bulk editing features to the Assignments crowdsourcing platform and fixed some dastardly bugs.

Last week, we pushed some major changes to how we handle payments, now letting you see when a particular check is cashed. We also made a number of improvements to Assignments, including more design flexibility and the ability to make user submissions public.

Last week, no new features on MuckRock were released, but we did give ONA attendees a first sneak peak at the new DocumentCloud.

Last week, we released a fix to stop certain news article header images from getting improperly compressed. We also worked on GovLens design updates and improved the release pipeline.
