Moodle 2.0 release notes
Note: This article is a work in progress. Please use the page comments or an appropriate moodle.org forum for any recommendations/suggestions for improvement.
Release date: July 20, 2010
Before the final release we will have a series of rapidly improving Preview releases, roughly weekly. These are to allow a wider range of developers and contributors to test the code on copies of their production servers, help us tweak the interface and performance, and work on translations, modules and other third-party code (most of which will have to be rewritten significantly).
