Hi everyone,
The XWiki development team is proud to announce the release of XWiki 1.0

Here are the main changes from the 0.9.x versions:
* New Skin
* Lots of usability improvements
* Importer/Exporter to import and export sets of wiki pages
* XWiki can now work with an empty database
* Pages can be tagged (not documented yet) + basic UI for viewing the tag
cloud
* New WYSIWYG editor (using Tiny MCE v2)
* New Rights editor
* New web site and updated documentation
* Improved programming APIs
* Notion of Panels (porlet-like areas which can be added in menus) + Drag
and drop Panel Wizard to easily customize the displayed Panels
(experimental, works only in Firefox)
* Standalone installer to get up to speed quickly (includes Jetty and HSQL
already set up)
* Attachments versioning
* Section edits (ability to edit only sections of a page)
