+
+I hope you are all okay with the ongoing situations around the world. We are
+happy to release **version 3.1**, with some new features and bugfixes.
+
+### Front end improvements
+
+A random assortment of improvements to the front end, including aerial maps for
+Bing and OSM maps, lazy image loading on list items, the ability to check
+passwords against Have I Been Pwned, and Open Location Codes support in the
+search box.
+
+### Admin improvements
+
+We've added a full text index so searching reports in the admin should be much
+quicker. You can disable updates or reopening on a per-category basis, as well
+as enable anonymous reporting. CSV generation is now done asynchronously, with
+progress shown, in case it takes a long time. Staff users can use HTML in
+updates, and response templates can also include HTML. The site now records
+whether a report was made on desktop or mobile, and includes any extra fields
+in email submissions to bodies. Staff status can be removed from users in bulk,
+and inspectors can update the asset on a report via the inspector form.
+
+### Bugfixes
+
+As always, a wide variety of issues covered here. We added PostgreSQL 12
+compatibility to the schema update script, fixed an issue where the CSV export
+returned multiple entries per row, added a fix for photo orientation in modern
+browsers, and improved the moderation diff display.
+
+### Upgrading
+
+A full list of changes can be seen in the
+[changelog](https://github.com/mysociety/fixmystreet/releases/tag/v3.1) as usual.
