+This document contains information about TYPO3 version 6.0 shall be released
+on October, 2012.

+
+===============================================================================
+Compatibility
+===============================================================================
+
+* Refactored bootstrap
+
+With a bootstrap refactoring the index.php file located in the document root of
+the installation was changed. If you are running a typo3 core source with a
+symlink, make sure that this file is also a symlink to the cores index.php,
+otherwise the frontend will be broken. If index.php is a copy of the source
+file, make sure to install a fresh version from 6.0 sources.
+
+* Deprecated methods
+
+Deprecated methods that were initially targeted to be removed in TYPO3 4.8/6.0
+have finally been removed. The deprecation log shows which functions were
+declared to be deprecated and will be removed in the next TYPO3 versions.
+
+* Removed classes prior to scheduled deprecation removal
+
+t3lib_BEDisplayLog: This class was used only by the old belog module, its
+functionality is now encapsulated in EXT:belog itself. Since it is very
+unlikely that the class was used by other external extensions, the file was
+removed instead of deprecating it.
+
+* New XCLASS handling
+
+The old way of registering XCLASSes in $TYPO3_CONF_VARS[TYPO3_MODE]['XCLASS'] is
+deprecated. XCLASSES can now be registered by adding a 'ux_' prefixed entry of
+the base class to the ext_autoload.php file providing the XCLASS path. The
+deprecation layer for old class registration can potentially calculate a wrong
+path so the XCLASS registration can fail now. This can be fixed by addiononally
+using the new registration scheme through ext_autoload.
+Extension authors are advised to remove the three line XCLASS statement at the
+bottom of class files now for any extension with a compatibility for 6.0 and above.
+More information can be found at http://wiki.typo3.org/Autoload
+
+Removed Functionality
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+* Removed doNotLoadInFE flag
+
+With TYPO3 4.3 the flag doNotLoadInFE flag was introduced in ext_emconf.php
+extension files to hint the core that an extension has no frontend
+functionality. The performance gain of this change in the frontend was minimal.
+The flag is now removed and the according extList_FE setting in localconf.php
+has no effect anymore.
+
+* Removed system extension simulatestatic
+
+The system extension to simulate static documents was removed from the core.
+@TODO: Issue #36025 must be solved and this note here adapted, otherwise the
+removal will be reverted.
+
+* Removed TypoScript option noBlur
+
+The ancient noBlur TypoScript setting for old Browsers (Internet Explorer <= 5.5)
+was removed without alternative. The setting has no effect anymore and can be
+removed from custom TypoScript objects, especially MENU.

+Changes and Improvements
+===============================================================================
+
+This will list all changes and improvements between TYPO3 4.7 and 6.0. For
+technical details see ChangeLog included in the typo3_src package.
+
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
General
-=======
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+* Extbase and fluid always loaded
+
+The core extensions 'extbase' and 'fluid' are used in core classes like t3lib
+and in several important core extensions. Extbase and fluid are now required
+extensions and always loaded.
+
+Other General Improvements
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- * 4.5 will be the first official TYPO3 release with LTS (long term support)
- * A Sprite Generator was added. This allows you to create your own
- sprite files, also core can generate the files if some new icons
- were added (#15079).
+...

+Security
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

+
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Backend
-=======
-
- * The user can decide the type of each page created in the
- "Create multiple pages" Wizard. And the wizard can create more
- than 9 pages at once.
- * All system extensions from typo3/mod were moved to real system
- extensions. These modules are:
- - Extension Manager
- - List module
- - Filelist module
- - Info module
- - Access module
- - Workspace module
- List module and Extension Manager are set to required extensions,
- but it is possible to overwrite this setting in localconf.php eg
- if you want to deinstall the Extension Manger. Make sure you visit
- the Update Wizard!!!
- * The recycler was refactored and has now the same skin as the rest
- of the BE.
- * DB check -> page tree submodule was removed (module lowlevel).
- * RSA Auth now works also with special chars.
- * Clearing cache now is logged (#15305).
- * A hook now allows postprocessing of filelist and TCEforms files
- operations (#15192 and #15221). Typical use-case:
- - Allow editors to upload any picture (e.g., 10 Mpixels) as they
- don't know how to resize the pictures or do not have the software
- - Prevent fileadmin to be overflooded with huge pictures which
- will never be used in their original size
- - Automatically resize "huge" pictures after the upload
- Extension using it already:
- http://forge.typo3.org/projects/show/extension-image_autoresize
- * New TS config option to disable the "Show secondary options"
- checkbox (#13797). In User-TS, you can set:
- options.enableShowPalettes=0 to see this feature in action.
- Default is still "1" like it used to be.
-
-
-Frontend
-========
-
- * FE login now allows to show the logout form direct after login.
-
-
-Extbase / Fluid
-===============
-
- * All methods trying to find an object by uid now ignore the
- storagePid. This changes the behavior of argument mapping and the
- way extbase fetches 1:1 relations. Resolves #5631. You should not
- experience any negative side-effects of this change, i.e. if your
- extension worked before, it will definitely after this change.
- However, it makes the record handling more robust.
- * Performance improvements in
- TypoScript::convertTypoScriptArrayToPlainArray.
- * Numerous other bugfixes, see extbase/ChangeLog.txt
- * Fluid contains many new features you might want to start using.
- There are some changes that require special attention in case you
- created custom condition ViewHelpers or if you call renderSection()
- and renderWithLayout() from Tx_Fluid_View_TemplateView.
- * Check out typo3/sysext/fluid/ChangeLog.txt for more details!

Development
-===========
-
- * There is a new setting that shows all SQL queries in debug
- (#15425): $TYPO3_CONF_VARS['SYS']['sqlDebug'] = 2;
- * Contrib libraries can be replaced now via hook (#15218). This
- allows to test with updates of these libraries. Demo extensions
- can be found here:
- http://forge.typo3.org/projects/typo3v45-projects/files
- * Catch all ExtDirect Exceptions and show them in the DebugConsole.
- It now also allows you to call debug() (#15513).
-
-
-TypoScript
-==========
-
- * stdWrap now has a new feature: .numberFormat (#13815)
- lib.myPrice = TEXT
- lib.myPrice {
- value = 0.8
- numberFormat {
- decimals = 2
- dec_point = ,
- }
- noTrimWrap = || €|
- }
- # Will result in "0,80 €"
-
- * GIFBUILDER has a new feature: ELLIPSE (#2049). Example:
- file = GIFBUILDER
- file {
- XY = 200,200
- format = jpg
- quality = 100
- 10 = ELLIPSE
- 10.dimensions = 100,100,50,50
- 10.color = red
- }
-
-
-Database API / DBAL
-===================
-
- * Prepared queries are now part of the TYPO3 database API (#15457).
- The API is mostly based on PDO's method naming and currently
- supports SELECT queries. TYPO3 will progressively use this new
- database API which is cleaner and quicker when using DBAL.
- Extension authors are encouraged to use it in their own
- extensions.
- * DBAL now supports "FIND_IN_SET()" (#14818) function and maps it
- correct functions in case usage under AdoDB. Using FIND_IN_SET in
- listQuery() will provide performance improvements in all areas, as
- this is used in several places (backend and frontend, for example
- for checking the group list permissions).
-
-
-Workspaces
-==========
-
- * There is a new Scheduler task for the automatic publication of
- workspaces (#14994). If a publication date has been set for a
- given workspace, it will be published the next time the Scheduler
- task runs. Note that automatic "un-publication" still does not
- work. Replaces non-working CLI script
- "typo3/mod/user/ws/cli/ws_cli.phpsh".
-
-
-Backend skin
-============
-
- * sprites.css now contains the autogenerated sprites.
-
-
-Speed improvements
-==================
-
- * Added "compress data" options to DbBackend of the Caching
- framework (#15141). Enable it like this:
- $TYPO3_CONF_VARS['SYS']['caching']['cacheConfigurations']['cache_pages'] =
- array(
- 'frontend' => 't3lib_cache_frontend_StringFrontend',
- 'backend' => 't3lib_cache_backend_DbBackend',
- 'options' => array(
- 'cacheTable' => 'cachingframework_cache_pages',
- 'tagsTable' => 'cachingframework_cache_pages_tags',
- 'compression' => TRUE,
- ),
- );
- * Some often used functions of t3lib_div were speed improved.
