The JIRA Extension 10.0, 10.1 and 10.1.1 have been released. Version 10.0 adds the concept of JIRA charts macro in XWiki pages with the idea of displaying the same kind of widget you can see in a JIRA dashboard. Three new macros are provided: pie chart, created vs resolved line chart, and bidimensional grid chart.

It also have 2 improvements: the new sort parameter for the Document Tree and Children macros, and the new notification email headers for auto-replies. It also contains security fixes, with the highest severity being 8.7/10. See the release notes for more information. ...

The XWiki development team is proud to announce the availability of XWiki 17.0.0. This is the first release of the 17.x cycle. The most notable change is the move to Jakarta EE 9.1 that allows XWiki to run on recent versions of the supported application servers (like Tomcat 10+ and Jetty 12 EE9/10). Make sure to read the migration notes though since this change can potentially break backwards compatibility. Besides this, it's worth mentioning the new sort parameter for the Document Tree and Children macros, and the new notification email headers for auto-replies. Being the start of a new cycle we also took the opportunity to upgrade of a lot of our dependencies. This release contains security fixes, with the highest severity being 8.7/10. See the release notes for more information. ...

December is over and this means we've finished the XWiki 16.x cycle. It's time to look back at what we achieved in 2024.

In the 16.x cycle, we've been refining and integrating the real-time WYSIWYG editor as the default in XWiki, while introducing new features like manual navigation menu ordering. We've also improved the UI of the notifications watch buttons, added the option to include summaries for attachments, and worked to achieve the WCAG 2.2 AA accessibility compliance (in the last year, 70 WCAG issues were closed). We made additional efforts to transition from Live Table to Live Data, boost performance, fix bugs, and release security updates. Several contributions have been made to our extensions, including releases like Glossary, Machine Translation, Replication, Word-based Notifications, Change Request, and the Interactive Link Visualizer, among others.

A new LLM Application (BETA) has also been contributed: a server app with a wiki interface and chatbot powered by LLMs for searching, generating, translating, and editing content. 

Additionally, we had a few releases for Cristal, a modular wiki UI using modern web technologies and supporting multiple backends, including XWiki, to store wiki data. ...
