    MODx Revolution 2.0 RC-2 Released!

    The MODx Team would like you to know that MODx Revolution 2.0 RC-2 is out and ready for download.

    There are 2 versions available:
    Traditional (modx-2.0.0-rc-2.zip) - For regular users and users who don’t have root/sudo access to their machine.
    Advanced (modx-2.0.0-rc-2-advanced.zip) - For those who want a smaller download and compressed install and have root/sudo access to their machine.

    Note: Revolution 2.0 (since Beta-5) requires PHP 5.1.1 and above.

    What’s new in Revolution 2.0.0 RC-2? (Read the full announcement)

    • Vastly improved and more detailed PDO checks in setup
    • Lots of speed and performance optimizations for manager UI, faster response times, and update to ExtJS 3.2.1
    • Elements can now be restricted by Access Control Lists on their Categories
    • Lexicons refactored; now file-based and much easier to develop with, any entry can be overridden without breaking upgrade path
    • Categories can now be drag/dropped in the Elements tree
    • Added tree_root_id setting that allows you to specify the start parent id (or ids) of the left Resource tree
    • Added filemanager_path for restricting files tree paths, added file-specific permissions for ACLs
    • Over 100 bugs fixed and tasks resolved

    As with all releases, and to help get us closer to the Generally Available (GA) release, please submit bug reports and feature requests. You should also read the documentation, post feedback and successes, and follow along with development.

    Thanks,
    The MODx Team
