    Hello everyone,

    We are glad to announce Campsite 3.5.0-rc1 is available on sourceforge, more
    concretely, here:
    https://sourceforge.net/projects/campsite/files/campsite/

    The 3.5 is the first major relase under the Sourcefabric label. The RC features
    open-layers based geolocation, multiple authors management, a new caching
    system, a new media archive, new widget-driven home, flexible frontend access
    to images etc.

    Please feel free to download it and start playing with it. As usual, please
    not that this is a release candidate not meant for production environments.

    What you won't see in the RC is the new streamlined UI (for a preview and the
    related discussion see this thread in our forum
    http://forum.sourcefabric.org/index.php/t/3241/), and functioning multiple-
    authors front-end features. That will all make it into the general
    availability release scheduled for the second half of January.

    You can help us make 3.5 shine by testing, testing, testing and suggestions,
    suggestions, and comments.

    All the best,

    Sava

    The highlights of this release are:

    - You can now have multiple authors per article
    - Geolocations for each article - each article can be tagged with one or
    more locations which you can display on an interactive map
    - New topics user interface (tree display with Ajax) with ability to
    search topics. Drag and drop topics to reorder them,
    - Widget dashboard; the base set of widgets include:
    - Pending articles
    - Most popular articles
    - Recently modified articles
    - Recently published articles
    - Submitted articles
    - Your articles
    - RSS feed reader
    - Any Google gadget
    - Images archive view
    - Media archive view
    - Page caching engine, speeds up your pages by between *8-50
    times*uncached speed on production environments. Especially useful for
    VPS hosts
    where APC or memcached is not available.
    - All article lists can now be filtered, sorted, and provide a custom
    display of the columns.
    - If the user's session times out for security reasons, the user can log
    in again and not lose their work.
    - During install, you now have the ability to choose the template set you
    want to use.
    - You can now restore your entire site through admin interface by
    uploading one of your backup files.
    - Password restore option (at last!)
    - Mass upload of files for attachments and photos.

    Minor features:

    - The permission "User will be notified on several events"(which sends
    out emails when something happens in the admin interface) is disabled by
    default for all User types (a lot of you will really appreciate that one!)
    - More useful information in notification emails
    - Automatic calendar popup for date fields article type
    - Template Engine improvements:
    - List Articles in topic including subtopics
    - Ability to list articles ordered by last_update article property
    - Ability to display the image archive on the frontend
    - Sorting order for {{list_article_images}}


    And before the final release comes out:

    - New look and feel
    - Redesigned article edit page
    - Improved default template set
    - Mobile templates
    - New name!
