[ANN] XWiki 1.0 RC 3 Released

[Vincent Massol]

The XWiki development team team is pleased to announce the  
availability of the 1.0 RC 3 release.
Go grab it on http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/Download

This release is planned to be promoted as the final 1.0 release next  
week if no critical bug is found till then.

New in this release:

Bugs fixed:
   * Filter conflict: external links can be rendered two times. This  
fixes a problem with some absolute URLs in wiki pages that make XWiki  
hang.
   * The link to the user profile is broken for non-local users
   * Links to virtual wikis broken when using XWiki behind a proxy
   * The top menu entry shadow disappears when hovering
   * Generated PDF loses paragraphs

Improvements:
   * Make password type HASH by default

IMPORTANT: XWiki 1.0 RC 2 and RC 3 fix an important security issue in  
past releases where passwords were stored in clear in the database.  
Passwords are now hashed. If you are upgrading from a previous  
version, any new user or any password update will automatically get  
the password hashed. However existing users who do not change their  
passwords will still have their passwords in clear in the database.  
Thus, we are providing a tool to automatically hash all passwords  
from an existing database.
