PS. This is the proposed release announcement:
The Apache Roller project is pleased to announce the release of Roller
6.0.0.
You can find a list of the issues resolved in Roller 6 here:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/ROL/versions/12344884
In summary, Roller 6 is a new version of Roller with these features:
* Web interface has been rewritten to use Twitter bootstrap via the Struts
2 Bootstrap tags.
* Most dependencies have been upgraded to latest version.
* Compiled with Java 11 and requires Java 11.
* The installation giude has been converted from OpenOffice to AsciiDocs.
It should be relatively easy to ugrade from Roller 5.2.4 to Roller 6
because there are no changes to the database schema (that means you can
easily roll back if you find problems). The user interface is different and
we hope you'll find it better, easier to use, more intuitive and with a
more modern feel.
Thanks to the many contributors to Roller for this new release. We hope
you'll enjoy and find it useful.
