This release should be backward compatible with older other mara packages. However, when updating to packages that rely on this version of mara-app, changes to the application bootstrap process are required. Please have a look at the __init__.py of the mara example project for how to setup navigation and ACL.

For updating your own module’s __init__.py, please have a look at the one of mara-acl
