The XWiki Development team is proud to announce the
second release of the 4.x cycle.
This release brings Extension Manager improvements such as merging of configuration
documents during extension upgrade, a more gentle learning curve by hiding internal
documents from non-technical users, and lots of goodies for the developers such as easy
sharing of variables between scripts in different languages.
Download it hot off the press:

Other new and notable features include:
* Message sender macro for allowing users to send to the activity stream from any
location.
* Global and per-user timezone settings
* Script access to load dependencies from the core using the Component Manager
* Smarter velocity interpretation converts allows strings to be passed to methods which
take enums
* Stop run-away scripts after a configurable timeout
* Shorthand HQL queries in the Query Manager
Even more important than all this IMO:
* Ability to resolve merge conflicts when upgrading/installing an extension
* Hiding of technical content by default
For a full list with examples and explanations, check

Thanks everyone who contributed to make the 4.1 cycle a success.
Thanks to you Caleb for being the Release Manager for XWiki 4.1! :)
