Summary:

Changes to Tigerstripe in Iteration 27:

Simplified dependency page of Tigerstripe descriptor editor (Bugzilla 319864)
In the past, the dependency page of a Tigerstripe descriptor editor contained two lists: 'Referenced Tigerstripe Projects' and 'Dependencies'. There was also a link to 'Add standard built-in modules'. This was simplified by providing a single list where all model dependencies can be specified. The different type of dependencies are distinguished by different icons. The link was also removed as it's no longer needed.
