PrestaShop Core Weekly - Week 43

This edition of the Core Weekly report highlights changes in PrestaShop core codebase during last week, from Monday 19th of October to Sunday 25th of October.

Milestones

After four RCs version, we released PrestaShop 1.6.1.2! It’s most notable is to solve the Product page slowness issue: let us know how that works for you!
Incidentally, that explains the lack of activity on this version that week :)
