WDN Shared Governance Board Updates

Hard flip to 5.0 in UNLcms on Monday, August 5th (semester starts Mon, Aug 26th)
- Communication to sites still in 4.1 about the change
- Going through a list of the higher-priority sites; assistance will be available
Discussion of user roles/access
- More granular roles for access for adding / editing pages / menu / availability to html
Removal of deprecated.css for Drupal 8

All numbers (except Security) up this month!: https://webaudit.unl.edu/groups/unl/

Documentation updates on site (https://cms-docs.unl.edu/documentation/unl-web-framework-5/)
Responsive (and scrollable) tables
- Responsive: Stacked by default, goes to default table @sm breakpoint
- Scrollable: add class to make table scroll horizontally
Add portrait orientation options and responsive suffixes to aspect ratios
Add mixin/utility for XL max-width
Add media query for reduced motion preference
Coming Soon:
- Lazy-loading updates
- NOTE: deprecated.css will be removed from the global include with August release. If you want to continue using 4.1 classes, you'll need to manually include the file in your "head" section: https://wdn.unl.edu/documentation/5.0/using-olddeprecated-classes-and-css (UNLcms will continue to include the file for the time being, CMS ties need to take no action)

May 18 hosting move completed. Ongoing mystery issue with items automatically appearing in menu when new page is created.
[submission:user:nuid] token now available for webforms
Drupal 8 timeline:
- Phase 1: New "Quickstart" managed sites available July 1
- Phase 2: New custom "Builder" sites (similar to current sites) - available early fall TBD
- Phase 3: Migration path (TBD)
