This release is the first release built against a version of Modeshape that does NOT use Infinispan for data storage.

Excerpt
Note

This release is a major release (i.e. 4.7.0 instead of 4.6.1) because of the upgrade in an underlying application, Modeshape 5. This requires a backend data upgrade. See the "ModeShape 5 Upgrade" section below for details.

The deprecated filesystem federation connector has been moved from the core codebase into a separate module.
The transform feature has been replaced by the more robust tooling found in the external LDPath service.

ModeShape 5 Upgrade

Application Programming Interface

One of the technical priorities of Fedora is to define a well-specified application programming interface (API) against which client applications can be written and future server-side implementations can be created. This Fedora API should be clear and detailed enough such that a corresponding technology compatibility kit (TCK) would be able to indicate if any Fedora implementation fulfills or diverges from the specification. With this in mind, several issues were addressed in this release that clean up Fedora's RESTful interaction.
