This month, the Symfony documentation started preparing for Symfony 3.0, by removing the usage of deprecated features and documenting new features. Meanwhile, lots of minor fixes where merged into the documentation.

New Documentation¶

Ryan Weaver wrote a new article on upgrading Symfony in your project. In a step by step way, it describes how to upgrade a patch version (e.g. 2.6.0 to 2.6.1) or a minor version (e.g. 2.5.x to 2.6.x).

After a discussion with Bernhard (the merger of the Validation component), Peter Rehm decided to fix and add more details to the Validation Groups section. Hopefully, it will make this difficult topic easier to understand.

Thanks to Christian Flothmann, the documentation is finally updated the Security form chapter to use the new authentication utilities added in Symfony 2.6.
