  1. If you know of applications which deep link to the admin or lite UIs, update those links.
  2. If you have a reason to continue using these old UIs, there is an option to manually redeploy them.  (Though let us know if there is a missing feature or issue in the New UI.)

Custom member fields have been deprecated

  1. This was a very uncommon feature so most people should not be impacted.  Previously, each individual group could have multiple membership lists.  There would be the default list of members, but then you could also specify separate membership lists as well.  Going forward, the best practice is to use separate groups for those custom lists instead.  Custom lists are not supported in the New UI, but if you still use them, they will be available in the Admin UI until the Admin UI is removed in Grouper 2.5if you choose to manually redeploy it.
