16 This is the release notes for [[XWiki Commons>>http://commons.xwiki.org]], [[XWiki Rendering>>http://rendering.xwiki.org]] and [[XWiki Platform>>http://platform.xwiki.org]]. They share the same release notes as they are released together and have the same version.

18 This release brings extra usability in 2 areas: images can now be searched for inside the WYSIWYG editor (when adding an image), and macros available in extension repositories but not installed are also visible directly from the WYSIWYG editor's Insert Macro feature (and can be installed in one click by admins). As usual, there are also bug & security fixes.
