TikiWiki 1.8.4 has been released!

Terence -

TikiWiki 1.8.4 is out! The files can be found at the usual location on Sourceforge. Tiki admins are strongly urged to upgrade to this version due to a vulnerability in versions 1.8 through 1.8.3 that allows individual wiki page permissions to be bypassed. Several path disclosure vulnerabilities have also been removed in the smarty_tiki area. Read on for more information regarding other bugfixes and enhancements, or visit ReleaseProcess184.

Tikiwiki.org under 1.9 pre-release

mose -

Accordingly to our secular tradition about DogFood, I migrated tw.o (tikiwiki.org) website to 1.9, to make it a perfect ground for an exhaustive quality process in 1.9 release cycle. That energy has a price and I hope you will bear the inconvenience of that more unstable ground. Help us to make it firmer !

TikiWiki 1.9 - Sirius - Release Process Ignited

mose -

I blew the Release Trumpet some days ago on irc for announcing the ignition of the 1.9 Release Process. The cvs HEAD has been live and kicking for some 6 months now, used by some brave (or foolish) explorers in production environment with some known hazards (but not so many, finally).

Now we can release a public tarball of that version under the Release Candidate process that we followed for 1.8 with some enhancements that I list in the body of this article.

Quick version: Main points composing the 1.9 release process

  1. update changelog drastically
  2. prepare new bugtrackers using 1.9 tikiwiki trackers
  3. update all pages on tw.o linked from the bundled help system
  4. BRANCH-1-9 appear for 1.9 road to stability : Feature Freeze !
  5. 1.9rc1 will be released on june 19th (at 1:00 am ?)
