Hi,

We're pleased to announce the availability of the 1.0 Beta 5 release.

The focus is till bug fixing but this release brings other nice  
improvements:

   * Added support for parametrizing document resource bundles (See  
internationalizing XWiki applications)
   * Upgrade to Velocity 1.5 Beta 2 and Velocity Tools 1.3 (Velocity  
1.5 Beta 2 release notes)
   * Security: prevents instantiating random classes in Velocity
   * Improved user profile sheet
   * Add Calendar interface to edit and delete events
   * Charting plugin is functional again
   * Made Calendar and User profiles use Microformats (hCard and  
hCalendar)
   * Allow putting Velocity code in CSS and Javascript skin files
   * Improved Calendar plugin
   * Store the panel state (expanded/collapsed) for each user
   * Experimental: Backend implementation for rename (renames the  
document + all backlinks). There's no GUI yet (planned for Beta 6).  
To try it out, you can call the following in Velocity:

$xwiki.getDocument("Space1.MyPageToRename").renameDocument 
("Space2.MyNewName")
