To summarize this long list of issues:
The most important change is that XWiki uses and requires Java 1.5 now. Besides that, this is mostly a bugfix release: - the import is a bit more stable - changing parameters of list and number properties does not throw exceptions - improved the LDAP authentication plugin - improved the l10n ResourceBundle feature - new RevisionCriteria mechanism for requesting document revisions - keyboard shortcuts - replaced Rico with Scriptaculous - moved velocity to a component (in the XWiki 2.0 spirit)
And something which is mostly done: - new attachment recycle bin storage
Do we need some migrators for the new attachment table? What happens if someone using an old version of XWiki try using this new version? Thanks -Vincent
