-## New API key management
+## Backend refactoring
-API Keys are now managed using a text file on the server rather than require
database access, allowing
-an admin to more easily add, comment out or remove API keys. For more
information see
+There were significant backend changes in this revision removing a lot of
redundancy in the core model APIs,
+particularly between the parser and server modules.

+## GetHost() for shared widgets
-## JSON APIs
-
-Most of the Wookie APIs now support JSON; to use JSON either send an Accepts
header with the JSON mime type
-in the request, or append ?format=json to the request URL.
-
-## Improved upload API
-
-You can now add widgets to a running Wookie installation by simply POSTing the
widget to /widgets with
-widgetadmin credentials; unlike in 0.9.2 the installation is performed
immediately and feedback provided.
-The Widget's metadata is also returned in a successful response.
-
-## Download API
-
-As well as uploading .wgt files, you can download as well! If you send a GET
request to /widgets/{widget}
-using a Accept type of "application/widget" the original .wgt package is
returned.
-
-## No JSP UI; new "demo" application
-
-In 0.10.0 we no longer have an Admin JSP application or any other required
user interface. Instead we have
-a very simple JQuery demo application for quickly testing widgets. All the
administration features that
-used to be in JSP pages are instead available via REST API or editing
configuration files.
-
-## Improved connector framework for Java
-
-The Java connector now supports the whole of the Wookie REST API including
admin functions, not just creating
-widget instances.
-
-## OpenAjax Feature
-
-There is a new Feature extension for OpenAjax Hub, enabling inter-widget
communication in environments that
-support OpenAjax Managed Hub such as Apache Rave.

+Widgets using the Wave feature can now use getHost() and getHosts() to get
participants in the Host role.
+
+You can also create Participants with roles using the REST API and the
Connector; any participant with a
+role of "host" will be automatically made available through getHost() and
getHosts() calls in the widget.
