XLT 5.0.0

Homepage | Download | Release Notes | Fixed Issues

This is the first version of XLT under the Apache License 2.0. Besides some minor improvements and fixes, this release is mainly about the removal of the proprietary license check, an update of the licensing terms, and of course the documentation to build it yourself.

We will continue to use semantic versioning but release more often. From here, we are going to distinguish more strongly between added features (minor version) and just fixes (patch version).
