 :warning: IE11 deprecation notice / retiring support

In 2019, [Atlassian announced](https://community.developer.atlassian.com/t/retiring-ie11-support-for-atlassian-cloud-server-and-data-center-products/32118) that they will retire support for Internet Explorer (IE) 11. As a result, Jira 8.5 (Enterprise Release) is the last version supported on IE11.

To align with Atlassian's decision, we have decided to retire IE11 support in *Rich Filters for Jira Dashboards* as follows: 

- *Rich Filters for Jira Dashboards* 1.18.x will be the last version series to support IE11. Support will continue until Jira 8.5 reaches end-of-life on October 21, 2021. During this time, we will fix critical and severe bugs only in patches for the 1.18 version.
- Starting with *Rich Filters for Jira Dashboards* version 1.19.0, IE11 will not be supported anymore. We will stop testing and fixing bugs specific to IE11, and we will begin introducing features that are not compatible with this browser.

The goal of taking this step is to guarantee that *Rich Filters for Jira Dashboards* leverages the latest technologies to provide high performance and a great user experience.
