Dear all,
I am glad to announce that the release of NaviServer 4.99.27 is available at SourceForge [1]. This release is a pure bug-fix and maintenance release, which fixes a bug annoying for some OpenACS users.
See below for a summary of the changes.
Furthermore, the online documentation at sourceforge
https://naviserver.sourceforge.io/n/toc.html
is now more mobile-friendly and contains a simple version switcher for the stable release branch (4.99) and the main branch, which will be released as 5.0.
All the best!

New Features:
-------------
- None
Bug Fixes:
----------
- Bug fix: fixed potential crash when fallbackCharset is not defined
in the configuration file (using outdated configuration)
- Bug fix for fastpath in connection with "ns_serverrootproc"
Earlier versions of NaviServer initialized for fastpath the
interpreter with the connection conditionally, and rather late.
When "ns_serverrootproc" is configured, the interpreter with its
linkage to the connection is needed very early in the request. Now
it is ensured, that the interpreted is registered for the
connection when the callback is issued.
NaviServer 5 will have more changes in this respect.
Many thanks to Georg Lehner for reporting this bug and testing.
- Fixed various spelling errors in source code and documentation
- Documentation:
* fixed documentation bugs
* modernized examples
- Ease debugging, how values for "ns_conn location" are determined
Configuration Files:
--------------------
- Added sample section for charset mapping to sample-config.tcl
Modules:
--------
The following list contains just bug fixes, new features will
be documented with NaviServer 5.0.
- nsdbpg:
* Fixed potential crash in Tcl, when Database contains UTF-8
characters invalid to Tcl 8.6. Crash was observed in
"string tolower $var".
* Fixed potential crash, when bind variables are passed via
explicit "-bind" option, but variable binding was missing
- nsoracle:
* Reduced verbosity: For debug messages of the driver
implementation, use again "Debug" severity to avoid too much
verbosity, when looking for slow queries ("Debug(sql)" severity
of nsdb).
