# Stork 1.2.0, March 2nd, 2022, Release Notes
Welcome to Stork 1.2.0, a monthly development release. The changes
introduced in this version are:
**A design for Kea Configuration Management**. One of two major areas
being worked on is the ability of Stork to change Kea's configuration.
As the first step towards that goal, the team wrote the requirements
(https://gitlab.isc.org/isc-projects/stork/-/wikis/designs/config-require
ments) and a preliminary design
(https://gitlab.isc.org/isc-projects/stork/-/wikis/designs/config-design)
document. While there is no code written yet, some of the use cases and
design assumptions will affect many users; users are requested to
provide feedback by sending comments to the stork-users mailing list
(https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/stork-users) or as comments on
GitLab [#599].
**Testing improvements**. Test improvements are the other significant
activity for the team: we are working on creating the framework to run
and efficiently develop new system tests. While the tests themselves are
probably not directly useful for end users, they're a tremendous help
for the developers to test new functionalities and, even more
importantly, give us a way to easily and frequently verify that existing
functionalities are not affected by new changes [#709]. The PrimeNG
errors during UI unit tests have been fixed [#654].
**Improved performance of per-subnet statistics**. Earlier Stork Agent
code had a bug that periodically processed per-subnet statistics, even
when they were disabled. This problem has been fixed [#614].
**Crash fixed for large configurations**. A problem has been detected
for large Kea configurations. Internal tests indicated that a 29MB Kea
config file caused Stork to crash. The underlying problem is now fixed.
[#682].
**Stork tool database creation fix**. The `stork-tool db-create` command
now initializes the database with `pgcrypto` extensions enabled [#701].
**Updated dependencies**. We updated Angular to version 13.2.2 and
PrimeNG to version 13.1.0 [#690].
**Demo: traffic simulator fix**. Stork features a demo that comes with
many Kea containers and a DHCP/DNS traffic generator. A problem has been
fixed in the generator that prevented it from operating [#705].
