5 First release candidate of the 3.3 version. There are very few new things in this release, compared to 3.3 Milestone 2, most of the effort going into the extension manager and the Application Within Minutes features.

9 The full unabridged list of issues fixed in this release is available in our [[JIRA Dashboard>>http://jira.xwiki.org/secure/Dashboard.jspa?selectPageId=10590]].
10
11 == Improvements to the Extension Manager ==
12
13 The Extension Manager has been improved on all fronts, from the internal management of extensions, to the administration UI, and to the XWiki Extension Repository. Now [[the extensions wiki>>extensions:Main.WebHome]] is enabled by default as a source for extensions, although only a handful of extensions have been validated at the moment.
14
15 == First version of the Application Within Minutes general wizard ==
16
17 After the introduction of the new class editor and the livetable generator, 3.3 RC 1 sees the introduction of the general wizard tying all the other aspects making up the Application Within Minutes feature.
18
19 = For Developers =
20
21 == Miscellaneous ==
22
23 * [[XE-1055>>http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XE-1055]]: Several bugs fixed in the Activity Stream, mostly caused by wrong usage of timezones
24 * [[XWIKI-7215>>http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-7215]]: The Livetable "loading" status is enabled sooner, right after starting to type a new filter, although the actual fetching of new rows is still delayed until the user stops typing
25 * [[XEM-204>>http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XEM-204]]: By default path-based multiwiki is enabled in XEM, making it easier to test and run a virtual wiki farm
26 * [[XRENDERING-161>>http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XRENDERING-161]]: Starting with XE 3.2 we had introduced caching of rendered content to improve performances but that led to a huge increase in memory needs. We've now tuned this and we've been able to keep the performance improvement and at the same time to drastically reduce the memory need.
27
28 == Translations ==

30 The following translations have been updated:

48 = Backward Compatibility and Migration Notes =
49
50 == General Notes ==
51
52 {{warning}}
53 If you're running in a multiwiki setup you'll also need to define the property //xwiki.store.migration.databases=all// to your //xwiki.cfg// file or explicitly name all databases to be migrated as in //xwiki.store.migration.databases=db1,db2,...//.
54 {{/warning}}
55
56 You may also want to [[import the default wiki XAR>>Main.Download]] in order to benefit from all the improvements listed above.
57
58 {{warning}}
59 Always make sure you compare your ##xwiki.cfg## and ##xwiki.properties## files with the newest version since some configuration parameters were added. Note that you should add ##xwiki.store.migration=1## so that XWiki will attempt to automatically migrate your current database to the new schema. Make sure you backup your Database before doing anything.
