ANNOUNCEMENT: serverless-iiif v5.0.0

[Michael Klein]

Hello all,

I am excited to announce the release of serverless-iiif version 5.0. New and updated features of this release include:

• Support for IIIF Image API v3.0 alongside v2.1
• The use of Lambda Function URL streaming to allow the service to deliver responses larger than 6 megabytes without using the CloudFront “Three Card Monte” workaround
• A refactored deployment system, including support for deployment via infrastructure tools such as AWS CloudFormation and Terraform
• A new online documentation site featuring richer, more complete, dynamically generated documentation and examples
• Additional bug fixes and improvements

Many thanks to all those who have contributed time, code, reviews, suggestions, bug reports, and test cases to the project! Extra special thanks to Theia Wolfe from Hesburgh Libraries at the University of Notre Dame for consistent and timely code reviews, and Rob Kaufman of Scientist.com for invaluable assistance reviewing and quality-checking the final release.
