Dear all,
We are pleased to announce the latest stable release of [Learn-OCaml](https://github.com/ocaml-sf/learn-ocaml), version `0.15.0`.
Many thanks to all users who contributed bugs reports, fixes, and enhancements!
A comprehensive list of the fixes and enhancements offered by this release is available in [the Release Notes](https://github.com/ocaml-sf/learn-ocaml/releases/tag/v0.15.0) which also gathers static binaries for Linux and macOS, the corresponding [opam-repository pull request](https://github.com/ocaml/opam-repository/pull/24305) is pending, and the Docker images of [learn-ocaml](https://hub.docker.com/r/ocamlsf/learn-ocaml/tags) and [learn-ocaml-client](https://hub.docker.com/r/ocamlsf/learn-ocaml-client/tags) are immediately available on Docker Hub.
If you happen to maintain a `learn-ocaml` server, we strongly recommend that you update your version to `0.15.0` to benefit from important fixes (including a path traversal vulnerability fix), as well as newest features.
From a teacher point-of-view, this release improves the UI/UX for the "teacher tab" as well as the "partition view" pages.
* see e.g. the following screenshot that illustrates the ability to hide PII (either tokens or nicknames) in this web page, which can then be shared with students in a beamer context:

* see also the [online doc of partition-view](http://ocaml-sf.org/learn-ocaml/howto-classify-students-answers.html) for more details.
If need be, feel free to open issues in the [Learn-OCaml bug tracker](https://github.com/ocaml-sf/learn-ocaml/issues/new/choose) or the [learn-ocaml.el bug tracker](https://github.com/pfitaxel/learn-ocaml.el/issues), or post in this thread to share comments.
Happy OCaml learning and teaching, and stay tuned for the next release!
