AMY release v2.9.0 - 2019-09-16¶

Major AMY release v2.9.0 was issued on 2019-09-16, almost three months after previous major release v2.8.0.

This release sports a big project, three (instead of one) workshop request forms:

request form for people who know precisely what they want,
self-organised workshop submission form for instructors, who want their self-organised workshop to be recorded.

Piotr added new option for Lesson Publication Consent field.
