The XWiki development team team is pleased to announce the  
availability of the 1.0 RC 5 release.
Go grab it on http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/Download

The 1.0 RC4 release was supposed to be the last release before the  
1.0 final but we've discovered some important bugs, the most  
important being that with RC4 you couldn't anymore copy/paste content  
from Word/Excel into the WYSIWYG editor. This release is a bug fix  
release and is planned to be promoted as the final 1.0 release on  
next Tuesday. Let's hope it's the last RC.

     * Bugs fixed:
           o XWIKI-1205 - Going to the Main.WebHome page on a wiki  
with an empty database generates a NPE
           o XWIKI-1210 - Nested lists are discarded by WYSIWYG editor
           o XWIKI-1224 - Html tags is escaped when we switch from  
wysiwyg editor to wiki editor
           o XWIKI-1225 - Entering a multiline cell content only  
keeps the first line when saved in WYSIWYG mode
           o XWIKI-1227 - Incorrect paragraph when copy and paste  
from other editor to WYSIWYG editor
           o XWIKI-1229 - Toolbar in Wysiwyg Editor cannot wrap  
properly under IE7
           o XWIKI-1233 - Unindent button greyed out even though line  
is indented
           o XWIKI-1234 - Editor doesn't understand the 1. syntax  
notation for lists
           o XWIKI-1238 - Horizontal line breaks table
     * Improvement
           o XWIKI-1228 - Change the style sheet for select list in  
toolbar of WYSIWYG editor
           o XWIKI-1237 - Add handle button toolbar for font size and  
font family select in toolbar of visual editor.

IMPORTANT: XWiki 1.0 RC 2 has fixed 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.
