TYPOlight version 2.6.6 is available. Basically, you only need to download the maintenance release if your website requires to run the Safe Mode Hack.

The early release of version 2.6.5, which was one of the rare bugfix releases, made it perfectly clear that even changes that only affect one single line may have serious consequences.

TYPOlight version 2.6.5 is available. The maintenance release fixes a few bugs related to the new SEO-friendly image cache and the lightbox script.

TYPOlight version 2.6.4 is available. The maintenance release includes a few improvements of the permission system (regular users can now create news archives, calendars, forms etc.), a new TinyMCE plugin to insert lightbox images and some important bug fixes, thereunder a TinyMCE update to version 3.2.1.1 that hopefully fixes the issue with the rich text editor not showing up occasionally.

TYPOlight version 2.6.3 is available. The maintenance release includes a hardened Input class that detects even more malicious XSS code (e.g. in BBCode comments) as well as an important Safe Mode Hack fix (thanks to Peter Koch for tracking this one down), so it is highly recommended to update.

TYPOlight version 2.6.2 is available. The minor release includes two new core extensions - the memberlist module and the extension repository client - and introduces a new module that allows you to navigate articles as if they were split into multiple pages. A couple of frequently requested features like moving news between archives or an option to define an individual date format per root page have also found their way into the new release.

TYPOlight version 2.6.1 is available. The minor release introduces a new content element named "article alias", which allows you to insert the content of an article into another one. In addition, the newsletter module has been overworked and now supports sending personalized e-mails to registered members.

Ever wonder what all this talk of the "extension repository" is all about and what will it do for you? It's like applying live update to all your extensions, and then some!

The TYPOlight extension repository has finally been launched today. The central server allows developers/translators to maintain extensions online and users to search, download and review them. Integration of the corresponding back end interface is scheduled for October, 2008.

Can't you just feel the tingle in the air with all the things going on at the TYPOlight website? New websites, new forums, new books and new screencasts.
