Finally - Umbraco version 4.0.2 is ready for testing (this is not marked as a stable release yet, but it's likely to be within a couple of days). Please report any bugs you find in the Issue tracker. Only bugs related to this release will be fixed, so no need to report any issues already added in the tracker, please vote them instead.

This is a stability release fixing 43 bugs. Most importantly the horrible encoding bug has been fixed, but also a lot of minor quirks reported by our fabulous community via http://codeplex.com/umbraco has been fixed.

Most work has gone into the way Macros are inserted and edited in TinyMCE, so hopefully this should feel much more stable, especially if your macros are rendered in the editor. The Membership Provider has also been fully implemented, so it now supports the full featureset of the MemberShipProvider APIs.

We've also ensured that all events in Umbraco are now correctly wired up - there have been quirks with the BeforeUpdateDocumentCache as well as the Macro save events.

Full change log on the download tab.

We expect v4.0.2 to be released during the first week of June.

    Can you be hired for Umbraco development? Or do I have to do it through the certified providers?

    Hello Niels,

    Are you planning on adding the ability to select which membership and role providers Umbraco uses? Basically, allowing non-default membership and role provider selection?

    Thanks,
