The XWiki development team is proud to announce the availability of XWiki Enterprise 5.3 Milestone 1. This is more a developer oriented release with new Extension Manager APIs, an XWiki Enterprise Maven Archetype, XAR plugin improvements and fold observation events but it also has a number of bug fixes (36) and improvements (22) that the users will appreciate.

See the release notes for more information.

Yesterday we had our Bug Fixing Day #41. For the 5.x development cycle we've decided to intensify our bug fixing and invert the bugs created vs bugs fixed ratio so that we're always in the green, by having weekly BFDs.

We managed to fix 8 bugs and the goal remain to close more bugs than bugs that were created during the past 1500 days!

Thanks to the participants!

The XWiki development team is proud to announce the availability of XWiki Enterprise 5.2. This release comes with multiwiki support enabled by default: users are able to create new wikis without the need to install additional extensions. This is possible because the Workspace Application has been integrated in XWiki Enterprise. We stopped the support for XWiki Enterprise Manager as a consequence. Apart from this, the new release brings a Solr-based live search (to replace the one based on Lucene) and the ability to track active XWiki installs. The Distribution Wizard has a new step to upgrade all wikis. Developers will be interested by the new Wiki Stream framework which can already be used to export large wikis in XAR format. A lot of bug fixes (135) and many improvements (50) complete this release and make it worth trying.
