Last Week
We intended to release 6.15.3 last week, but some lingering issues made us push it to this week. We’ll be releasing 6.15.3 early this week, announcing it in the forums. As usual, upgrading to fix-releases is just a matter of starting the new server using the same $XP_HOME
.
Last week saw the release of our re-shot Enonic XP 6.15 promo video. Check it out! It’s less than 3.5 minutes, and will demonstrate four of our best new features in 6.15, including some nice and tasty extras. Also share it on social media, it’s my biggest shot at becoming famous
Four of our developers went to JavaZone last week, and saw many interesting and inspiring talks, as well as met and talked to many of our customers and partners. We continuosly send our staff to conferences around the world, the local JavaZone being one of our favourites. Next batch of developers to go to a conference will fly to Paris for dotJS and dotCSS in November.
We’re recruiting!
Last week, our latest star signed with us, Persijn. He’ll join us as a JavaScript developer in October, ready to become the next Enonic XP expert. We’re also on the hunt for Java-developers, two of them actually - one senior and one regular. Read more about the positions on our career-page.
