On LPS-136108: URLs using a virtual host are always reformatted on export and import, even in cases where they don't need to be the validation of the Web Content was added for Liferay layout URLs. Before this, there was no validation, so users could create their customizations where they could add different URLs to the Web Content's content. After the validation was added, some custom URLs became unable to be added to the Web Content. From user perspective this was a feature loss, so we decided to deliver a feature to make customers able to add their custom URLs to Web Content's content field. This feature is about adding a configuration for storing the user’s relative URL patterns. So custom URLs containing this pattern would bypass validation.

In order to allow developers to exclude directories from the build, a new property has been added: liferay.workspace.dir.excludes.globs= 

Kaleo Forms was already in maintenance mode. It is now being moved to deprecated, so it can be removed at the same time as DDL in about a year. This solution is being replaced by Objects, Workflow, and Form Container Fragments.

The portlets that are in the Contacts module will be deprecated.

These are:

1. Contacts Center
2. Members
3. My Contacts
4. Profile

In the first step, the modules were pushed to the maintenance mode.
