Re: [xwiki-devs] [xwiki-users] [Announcement] XWiki Enterprise and XWiki Enterprise Manager 4.0 released

The XWiki development team is pleased to announce the release of XWiki Enterprise and XWiki Enterprise Manager 4.0. Go grab it at http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/Download This is the first release of the 4.x cycle. See http://enterprise.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/Roadmap for more informations about the 4.x cycle. The highlights of this release are: * reduced document database id collision. It has been well tested but you might want to make sure you have a working backup of your database. * new LDAP administration UI * Annotations merged with Comments * Extension Manager improvements * App Within Minutes improvements * User profile customization * User directory improvements and user customized view * ColorThemes gradients customizable from ColorTheme Wizard * New IRC Bot Application On development side: * Extension Manager (without xar support and wiki UI) is now part of XWiki Commons project and can be easily used outside of XWiki * Component roles are now based on java.lang.reflect.Type instead of java.lang.Class which mean you can now have different roles with the same class and different generic types (e.g. ) * New Velocity tool to serialize Java objects to JSON format * Class reference always local * New Rights Implementation (Experimental). You can enable and test it in xwiki.cfg. * New technical content hiding system * A new ApplicationReadyEvent event has been introduce for component that need to access the database at init.
