PRINCIPLES
New principle available: Timezone Overlap which checks that team members have at least a specified number of overlapped working hours.
Updated principle: Locality can now be configured to use either ‘city’ or ‘country’ in additional to previously possible ‘address’. This is useful for testing whether all team members are in the same country.
Principles can now use a variety of colours: This is useful for introducing new principles where the default red colour is not appropriate; these could now be highlighted in a yellow instead to call attention but not alarm.
