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: http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/Download
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 out the release notes:

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! :) -Vincent
