[xwiki-users] [ANN] XWiki Enterprise 1.1 Milestone 3 Released

[Vincent Massol]

Hi Ricardo,

- First, as you've asked about the distinctions it means the  
description on the download page isn't good enough so that needs to  
be improved. I wouldn't mind getting your help for that :)
- Second, you say that there's a confusion on the word "platform" in  
the download page. I checked it and cannot see the confusion. However  
I don't understand what "Operative System" means... ;)

Thanks
-Vincent
