XWiki 5.1 Release Candidate 1 Released
The XWiki development team is proud to announce the availability of XWiki Enterprise 5.1 Release Candidate 1. This is mostly a stabilization release leading to XWiki 5.1 and it brings Sorl search improvements and bug fixes as we plan to make Solr the default search engine in 5.1 final. There is also a new Menu Application in platform (not bundled by default) to help you create navigation menus.
See the release notes for more information.
Bug Fixing Day 27
Yesterday we had our Bug Fixing Day #27. 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 close 10 bugs with 7 real fixes. We're now behind by 43 bugs for our new 1300 days objective.
Congrats to all the participants.
Let's keep the rythm!

Bug Fixing Day 26
Yesterday we had our Bug Fixing Day #26. 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 close 15 bugs and thus we now have more bugs fixed than created for the past 1200 days (i.e close to 3 years)!
Congrats to all the participants and special thanks to Raluca Stavro, Thomas Delafosse and Manuel Smeria. Hope to see you around next time!
We now have to set a new goal for the next bug fixing days. What will it be?

Bug Fixing Day 23
Last Thursday we had our Bug Fixing Day #23. 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've set a new goal of breaking even for the past 1200 days (i.e closed to 3 years!).
During the last BFD, we had only 3 participants... Still they managed to close 11 bugs. Congrats to them!
At the moment of writing, we're 37 bugs behind. Getting closer...
Let's continue to reduce the gap in the next BFD.
