Recent releases


Release Notes: This is a stabilization release as the end of the 3.x cycle approaches, so its main goal was to improve the Extension Manager and App Within Minutes features. However, this release also comes with a new look and a new default wiki page syntax. Other things to check are the new delete space menu, the space templates, the minimized action menu, the new display macro, and the fact that non-ASCII characters are preserved in attachment file names.


Release Notes: This is the first and probably last bugfix release for the 3.2 series. One important change is the way relative references in an included document are resolved, reverting back to the pre-3.0 behavior. Other areas with several bugfixes are support for Oracle databases, the rending engine, the WYSIWYG editor, and the Activity Stream.


Release Notes: This is the first and probably last bugfix for the 3.3 series.


Release Notes: This release candidate brings a few bugfixes and improvements over the previous version. The most notable addition is the ability to easily import an extension from any repository into XWiki Repository.


Release Notes: The goal of this release (and the following one, which will be the last of the cycle) is to improve the current features. The highlights of this release are: a new default color theme, new default page syntax (XWiki 2.1), delete space menu, simple space templates, special characters in attachment name, a minimized action menu, a display macro, and an improved Extension Manager UI.

XWiki
Possibly far more features than any other Wiki available, including embedded scripting within Wiki documents (a huge plus for me) and embedded Hibernation SQL/fulltext engine. Unfortunately, using most of these features in XWiki are undocumented for now. Definitely worth a look if you want something with a feature set on par with (or vastly surpasses) TWiki, but faster (Java-based, runs under Tomcat engine) and more dynamic like Zope.
