Note: Support for BlueSpice 2.x ended on April 30, 2020.
Since 2010 there have been 21 releases of BlueSpice. BlueSpice replaced the product HalloWiki at that time. BlueSpice was initially a collection of extensions that could be extended by individual software packages. In 2015, all existing extensions and individual modules were combined in one distribution.[1] Delivering BlueSpice together with MediaWiki was the next logical step.
The versioning of BlueSpice follows the Semantic Versioning Specification at semver.org.
