What's new in 2.0 release candidate 1 (since beta 2)?
=====================================================
What is release candidate 1?
We believe that release candidate 1 will fix all known bugs that we
intend to fix for the 2.0 final release. This release should be a bit
more stable than the previous betas. We would like to see even more
widespread testing before the final release, so we are producing this
release candidate. The final release will be exactly the same unless
any show-stopping (or brown bag) bugs are found by testers of the
release candidate.
All the changes since the last beta release are bug fixes or changes
to build support for specific platforms.
