Two months since our last beta release, we are finally ready to unleash 2.0 beta12, with over a hundred fixes and hugely improved stability. Here is the Mac OS X 10.4.x universal binary, a 10.3.x version can be made upon request. This will be the last beta before 2.0rc1, which will be followed by 2.0rc2 and then 2.0. There are still bugs (Shock!) in 2.0 beta12, but it's time to get the 2.0 release wrapped up so that developers can start working on new features in addition to bug fixes. 2.0 is now at least as stable as 0.99.3, and for a number of tasks, much more stable.

A frustrating error required the release of beta6.2 in order to fix a crashing bug inadvertently introduced in beta6.1.

2.0 beta 6.1 has been released. This contains a few minor fixes and some ongoing build system work that happened since beta6 was packaged.
