| |
12.1 | 60 | * The HTML5 renderer is now bundled in XWiki Enterprise. |
| |
12.4 | 61 | * Added a new ##objectPolicy=updateOrCreate## parameter to the save action that allows editing and creating objects in one request. For more details, see [[the documentation>>platform:DevGuide.URL Format||anchor="HParameter:objectPolicy"]]. |
