Schema Changes
- Table 'alf_acl_change_set': Transaction tracking added. 'version' column renamed to 'commit_time_ms'.
- Table 'alf_node': Locale in which node was last edited is recorded. 'locale_id' column added and foreign key referencing 'alf_locale.id'.
- Table 'alf_node_assoc': Peer associations are orderable. Added column 'assoc_index'.
Known Issues
- Updates to categories via the Category Manager in the Admin Console may not appear immediately if Solr is the used as the search engine.
- Activiti does not have the concept of start tasks, as a result when starting a workflow the initial start task is not shown in the 'My Completed Tasks' dashlet in the Explorer client, all other tasks in the workflow will be present.
- The TAG field does not support wildcard, prefix, fuzzy queries etc. Wildcard searches matching tags will not return any matching results.
