New Features

  • Update and reorganize the monolithic jamwiki project structure into the more modular jamwiki-core, jamwiki-web and jamwiki-war sub-projects. As a result of this change it is now possible to use the JAMWiki parser as a standalone library.
  • Update the parser to generate syntax that more exactly matches the parsed HTML output of Mediawiki.
  • Significantly improve the JAMWiki unit-test coverage.
  • Ignore line feeds in diffs to prevent showing changes due only to file format differences.
  • Add an option to view only untranslated keys on the Special:Translation page.
  • Upgrade to Lucene Search 2.3.1.
  • Updated spam filter patterns.
