[xwiki-devs] Release of Curriki 1.17 (CDN)

The Curriki developers' team is happy to announce that Curriki 1.17 is now released and deployed to www.curriki.org . This release fixes a number of bugs and adds the support for serving the static resources (such as JS, pictures, or CSS files that are part of the webapp) from a cloud distribution network. Curriki has chosen the Amazon Web Service S3 upload and Cloudfront CDN solution. This release required a number of adjustments in the internals (a URL factory) and quite some skin adjustments, often because absolute URLs that refer to CDN resources often get caught by the wiki syntax processor. We are thrilled to bring this release to the users' community of curriki.org for a better responsiveness and to the developers of the XCLAMS-based platforms. XCLAMS, the XWiki Collaborative Learning Assets Management System, is a web-service based on the XWiki platform that enables learning resources to be exchanged, developed, and shared following the Open Educational Resources model. The source of the Curriki.org XCLAMS branch is at: https://github.com/xwiki-contrib/currikiorg/commit/72b6e963ecd9e9794bda5f8d… The commit of the release is: https://github.com/xwiki-contrib/currikiorg/ For more details about bug fixes, see the jira version: http://jira.xwiki.org/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?projectId=10160&version=1… More information about XCLAMS in general see http://xclams.xwiki.org .
