uPortal developers, uPortal 2.6.0 release candidate one is now available from the uPortal downloads page. A release candidate signals "feature completeness", makes a binary available for easy downloading and testing, and provides a concrete artifact to talk about and open issues against. It also defines a serious candidate for release as uPortal 2.6.0 GA. There are a short list of known issues to be resolved before GA, but it's a short list. Unless additional significant issues are raised, this will be uPortal 2.6.0. Fifty Jira issues have been resolved since milestone 1. Release notes are available in the wiki. 2.6.0 includes many enhancements and fixes, including both those developed along the 2.5.x branch and new ones: * Drag and Drop preferences * fixed handling of portlet preferences * a pluggable DLM processing pipeline * XHTML output * fixes and performance enhancements, including some derived from Unicon's Academus product * CSyndFeedReader syndicated feed reader channel * a more deployer-friendly approach to adding dependencies to uPortal builds * dedicated error rendering thread pool * now includes Eric Dalquist's Bookmarks Portlet and Cris Holdorph's Google AJAX search API integration portlet as examples of JSR-168 support * Updated versions of dependencies Many people contributed code, testing, feedback, and issues so far in this release, including Mark Boyd, Jen Bourey, Jason Shao, Cris Holdorph, Nick Bolton, Brad Johnson, Susan Bramhall, Eric Dalquist, Don Fracapane, Faizan Ahmed, George Lindholm, Elliot Metsger, and David Grimwood, to name a few.
