What's included in this release :

1. Spanish Translation: Users now have the ability to toggle the language between English and Spanish. ​

2. Enhanced Timeline Designs: The timeline design has been updated based on feedback from previous release to make it easier for users to understand the overall timeline of the project.

3. Jobs Board: User testing indicated that information about jobs was a key area of interest. Users will now be able to clearly navigate to the RWE and NGV careers sites from the My Community page. ​

What's coming up in the next release :

1. Wrapper App with basic push notifications: A simple app mirroring the existing Doorstep website, with the addition of basic push notifications.

Note: timings are subject to external approval such as the Apple App store​

2. Ocean Brain: Integrating the Ocean Brain project for whales into the Doorstep site on a standalone page. This will not be accessible to community users from the regular COSW site.​

3. Additional languages support: Extending the automatic language support to additional priority languages (Mandarin, Arabic & Russian).

We've seen positive results from out sentiment analysis :  

1. We’ve conducted two tests with New York residents – one largescale quantitative study, and one smaller, longitudinal study which included quantitative and qualitative aspects.

2.
All metrics – public sentiment, level of information, trust, optimism, and concern– moved in the right direction after exposure to Doorstep in both tests.

- Public Sentiment improved by 19-35%
- Level of information improved by 36-205% 
- Trust improved by 24-48% 
- Optimism improved by 11-24%
- Concern reduced by 8-35%

3. We are working on a summary dashboard to enable you to see these results in more detail alongside engagement analytics (see screenshot).
