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.

7 This release brings fast in-place editing for plain wiki pages and AppWithiMinutes entries. The page Information tab has been extended with more information, some of which can also be edited in-place. For extension developers there's a new locale picker and a new UIXP to publish RequireJS modules. Application sheets can now be easily modified to add support for field-by-field in-place editing. Finally, many improvements have been added to the dedicated Solr multi-core system.
