Confluence Docs 2.10 : Release Notes 2.10-m2 ("Milestone 2")
This page last changed on Sep 07, 2008 by pfragemann.
For all production use and testing of Confluence, please use the latest official release. Who should upgrade?
Our milestone releases aim to provide plugin developers with an opportunity to see the latest changes in the code. Each milestone release has passed all our automatic tests, and has been used for one week on our official internal Confluence server. Most of the issues solved have been reviewed too, and usually milestone releases even have been load- and performance-tested for a while. However, since our milestones releases are timeboxed (i.e. they get released every two weeks, no matter how far we have come implementing features and bugfixes), there is always a chance that we have new known bugs, which are scheduled to be fixed in the next milestone, or completely new bugs unknown even to us. Additionally, our performance-testing and compatibility testing for databases and application servers is not done to the full extent. So, for example, a milestone release might behave well on a small installation but show severe problems when subjected to many users. Upgrade ProcedureFollow the normal upgrade instructions to upgrade from Confluence 2.9.x to this release. We strongly recommend that you backup your confluence-home directory and database before upgrading! DownloadsAll development releases are available from Development Releases on the Atlassian website. Issues resolved or improved in this release"Did you mean?"Dave Loeng's auto-suggest feature is the first major 20%-project to make it into Confluence. Try it out by mistyping a search, and you will find a link suggesting more relevant searches. This is an actual example of me typing way too fast: Try misspelling someone's difficult surname, like say, 'fraggemnan'. User managementConfluence Hosted developer Jens Schumacher has been very busy hacking on Confluence again, this time he improved the user-management a lot - so much more convenient than before.
Avatar cropping and deletionAnother, smaller 20%-project also made it into this release: Charles Miller and Dmitry baranovskiy enabled Confluence to allow cropping of uploaded avatar-images, and while they were at it the highly desired "delete images you never intended to upload in the first place" issue got solved too in order to make another 23 voters happy. Backend changesThe Engine Room team has implemented several important backend changes in this milestone:
