Minor changes in 2.5.27 and 2.6.11
Thanks to our community member MarkusHolstein the Link type is also kept in mind for webspace copy command. Another community member mamazu. fixed an issue when using the pseudo localization feature of Symfony with Sulu, with these releases you can use that feature to detect translations.
Also the `targets` are now configurable for every link provider to have a better control about them and give them a proper translation if required by the project. Beside that the Link type is also kept in mind for references, means for cache tags and the reference tab itself.
Important note is that we official deprecated the `sulu.context` parameter. If your service requires it you should instead depend on Symfony SecurityHelper service instead and check if you are in the admin firewall or not.
Sulu 3.0 Progress
With this alpha version we are happy to announce that the Versioning mechanics are now fully implemented. This is a major improvement over PHPCR versioning, which required Jackrabbit Apache Storage as an additional service. Now, versioning is a default feature in Sulu 3.0.
Beside that we reimplemented the whole property resolving mechanism so smart content and any content related selection work again as before.
We also removed a lot of PHPCR related stuff with this alpha version means that the old PHPCR related pages and content is no longer working and you need to migrate via the migration to the new content storage.
A big thank you also to our community member mamazu who helps a lot removing old deprecated code.
What is next?
As seen in the changelog we are still removing a lot of old code but are on a good way to remove all PHPCR-related components soon. Also we are currently bringing back the features of the later 2.x releases to the new content storage. Work in progress includes references, activities, segments and also audience targeting.
