Re: Clarification on release notes needed

Rule #1 on template writing: create your own template directory, and  
put your modified files in there.  Do not modify the default template.

Rule #2: put only modified files in your own template directory (and  
CSS).  JSPWiki will check your template directory for any given JSP  
file, and if that does not exist, it'll try to use the one from the  
"default" directory.  So you can change your entire layout by simply  
adding your own ViewTemplate.jsp file, nothing more.

All template files have changed between 2.4 and 2.6.
