Also see our Release Announcement here:

http://svn.modxcms.com/docs/display/revolution/MODx+Revolution+2.0-beta-1+Release+Announcement

2.0.0-beta leads MODx Revolution 2.0 into feature-lockdown; only a few planned additions will be added. From here on out, work will be directed toward bugfixes and compatibility.

There are 3 versions for download:

• Traditional (beta-1.zip) - For regular users, with all files pre-extracted.
• Advanced (beta-1-advanced.zip) - For those who want a smaller download and compressed install. Those who do not have root or sudo access to their machine should use traditional and not sdk or advanced.
• SDK (beta-1-sdk.zip) - Includes core building options, API docs, and files for developers. (coming soon)

Again, please fill out bugs in JIRA, read up on documentation in Confluence, and follow SVN developments in Fisheye.

Thanks,
The MODx Team
