5 This is the release notes for [[XWiki Commons>>http://commons.xwiki.org]], [[XWiki Rendering>>http://rendering.xwiki.org]] and [[XWiki Platform>>http://platform.xwiki.org]]. They share the same release notes as they are released together and have the same version.

15 === Moved Modules ===
16
17 * The [[Help Center Application>>extensions:Extension.Help Center Application.WebHome]] has been retired and its content integrated in the [[Help Application>>extensions:Extension.Help Application]], for the following reasons:
18 ** 2 extensions must not share the same pages
19 ** It’s logical that the help is in sync with what it documents
20 ** contrib extensions should be minimized for XS, all of XS deps should be in the XWiki GitHub organization (since they are maintained by the XS dev team), and preferably inside ##xwiki-platform## when possible.
21 ** Simpler to manage XS releases
22

89 This release introduce a new security mechanism to prevent unwanted redirection (details can be found [[here>>doc:.Entry006.WebHome]]).
