+
+
+    Currently the maps end point can't be accessed from India and China, we are
+    going to update maps end point to the new one "maps.opensearch.org" for
+    OpenSearch community users, which will solve the pain for opensource users from
+    some region can't access to the existing one.

+
+    * Branding configs rename and improvement (#771)
+     Change config smallLogoUrl to logoUrl, config logoUrl to fullLogoUrl to
+    emphasize that thumbnail version
+    of the logo will be used mostly in the
+    application. Full version of the logo will only be used on the main
+    page nav
+    bar. If full logo is not provided, thumbnail logo will be used on the nav bar.
+    Some config improvement
+    includes fixing the validation error when inputting
+    empty string, and add title validation function.

+    logo icon will be
+    called mark.

+    Advanced

+    * Add favicon configuration (#801)
+     Added a configuration on favicon inside opensearchDashboards.branding
+    in the
+    yml file. If user inputs a valid URL, we gurantee basic browser
+    favicon
+    customization, while remaining places show the default browser/device
+    favicon
+    icon. If user does not provide a valid URL for favicon, the

+     Add an addtional parameter to the checkUrlValid function
+    so that max redirect

+    * [Branding] handle comments from PR
+     Handling the helper function rename and grammar issues.
+     To avoid risk, we will not remove the duplicate code for 1.2 and

+
+    In Timeline, we use node-re2 for the regular expressions specified by
+    the end
+    users. Currently, re2 doesn't have an ARM build and returns an
+    error. To solve
+    this issue, we create an linux-arm64-64.gz and store it.
