The XWiki development team is proud to announce the availability of XWiki Enterprise 4.0. This is the first version of the new development cycle 4. This release brings reduced document database id collision, a new LDAP administration UI and quite a few improvements and bug fixes on Extension Managger, annotations, App Within Minutes and user profiles.

See the full release notes for more details.

The XWiki development team is proud to announce the availability of XWiki Enterprise 3.5.1. This is the first bugfix release for the 3.5 series, and, since 3.5 is the final major release in the 3.x cycle, a bugfix release for the whole 3.x cycle. The main focus has been on quality assurance, improving the compatibility with various database systems, polishing the new sheet mechanism, the new extension manager, the skin, the WYSIWYG, and other parts of the XWiki platform.

On the 26th of April 2012, we had our first Deprecation Fixing Day. Its goal was to have the maximum number of XWiki committers and contributors work together on a focused topic for the day. This time it was about fixing the maximum number of deprecation calls and moving deprecated APIs not used anymore to our Legacy modules.

We had 6 committers participating which was an ok turnout.

In addition one new Legacy module was created in the XWiki Rendering repository and one plugin (old technology) was moved out of the "oldcore".

The Sonar Dashboard says we had 1758 deprecated calls so we fixed about 4%. It's a start!

But even more important we moved 53 deprecated API to Legacy which means nobody coding on the XWiki project will be able to use those APIs by errors from now on.

Thanks to everyone who participated!

The XWiki development team is proud to announce the availability of XWiki Enterprise 4.0 Release Candidate 1. This is mostly a polishing release before the final one.
