TWiki Production Release 01-Feb-2003

NOTE: This is no longer the latest TWikiProductionRelease

The new TWiki Release 01-Feb-2003 (code name BeijingRelease) includes the following new features and enhancements compared to the previous TWikiRelease01Dec2001:

• Form and script to create new webs
• Enhanced Plugin API to manipulate topic data with new functions in TWikiFuncModule: readTopicText, saveTopicText, setTopicEditLock, checkTopicEditLock
• New Plugin hooks registrationHandler, beforeEditHandler, afterEditHandler, beforeSaveHandler, writeHeaderHandler, redirectCgiQueryHandler, getSessionValueHandler, setSessionValueHandler
• Internationalization ('I18N') support for international character sets in WikiWords and TWiki pages, such as ISO-8859-15 and KOI8-R (Russian), with some multi-byte JapaneseAndChineseSupport
• Possible to omit e-mail address in WebNotify, in which case the e-mail is taken from the user's home page; if the WikiName is a group name, a notification is sent to all members of the group
• New data storage framework that lets you use external RCS commands for revision control, or a new native Perl implementation that does not depend on the external RCS commands (not recommended yet for production use, see TWiki:Codev/RcsLite)
• New AND search; with regular expression enabled, use the semicolon ";" as the AND operator in %SEARCH{}% variable, FormattedSearch and WebSearch
• Many more enhancements, see the complete change log at TWikiHistory
