Jochen, I may have time to review the release notes in a couple days if nobody beats me to it.
Documentation-wise, I think the big shortcoming at the moment is better docs for all the new JavaScript capabilities. https://tapestry.apache.org/client-side-javascript.html is all background material, not a how-to guide. https://tapestry.apache.org/javascript-modules.html is better, but still not the practical, example-rich guide that I want to see. I was unable to use RC1 for my recent Hotel Booking app changes due to a bug that I believe you fixed just after the RC1 release (maybe TAP5-2500?). I think it was something about the <t:form> element failing if it didn't have a client-side ID, but I can't provide details at the moment. I need to try the latest nightly build. Off topic, but... nightly snapshots at https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/snapshots/org/apache/tapestry/tapestry-core/ are very old. Is there another location?
