Joomla! 1.5 RC2 Endeleo Released - Happy Birthday Joomla! |

Joomla! 1.5 RC2 [codename: Endeleo] is now available for download.
What better way to celebrate our 2nd Birthday! We chose Endeleo as the
codename for this release candidate as it is Swahili for 'development,
growth, progress ... improvement'. Highly appropriate we feel.
It
is roughly five weeks after the RC1 release and we have made major
improvements in certain areas of the 1.5 codebase. Time to share
another RC with the community. Some improvements and areas of changes
are listed below:
- Router refactoring solving a range of bugs
- Media Manager refactoring, moving this to MVC standards
- Updated scripts (version); mootools, tinyMCE, Xstandard
- Core template improvements
- Template language installer support
- ... and of course a lot more
Note: due to the Router refactoring there will be known issues with SEF url's.
Important, you need to upgrade!
In the current RC1 we found three security issues, one SQL injection,
one XSS, and a few full path disclosure vulnerabilities. Those security
issues are solved in the new release.
Where we go from
here: as you might have read on a recent blog, we will have at least
one more Release Candidate (RC3) and hope to move to a Stable release
from there on. |
