Natural language API #242

With this release we've implemented ARASAAC's natural language API to AsTeRICS Grid:

• currently it's only available for Spanish
• to activate it, go to Settings -> scroll down -> activate checkbox 'Activate automatic grammar correction'
• if activated, constructed sentences are checked and corrected at the time of speaking the contents of the collect element
• this works only if you're online

Thanks to Eduardo Lleida Solano, Professor at the Department of Electronic Engineering and Communications of the University of Zaragoza for helping in implementing the natural language API!

Other changes

• speak custom text when accumulated phrase is read, see #182
• fixed bugs in copying/pasting columns in translation modal
• added italian translation to gridset for early intervention and added italian translation of ARASAAC core - thanks to Paolo Mauri

Migration to new servers

With this release we're migrating to new database servers in the background. The reason is that the old server got too small and too expensive. In this process we've also created an automated setup for the servers with Ansible in order to make the server configuration more transparent and reproducible. See folder ansible in the repository.

For users nothing should change, you should still be able to use your existing online users. If you're experiencing any errors regarding online users, please contact us at [email protected].
