Hello LuaRockers!

We are just about ready to release LuaRocks 2.2.3 (or possibly rename
it to 2.3.0?), and I'd like to give the luarocks-developers list a
quick preview before we make a more widespread announcement on lua-l,
so here is the second release candidate:

http://luarocks.org/releases/luarocks-2.2.3-rc2.tar.gz
http://luarocks.org/releases/luarocks-2.2.3-rc2-win32.zip

Those of you on Unix who are running LuaRocks as a rock can install it using:

   luarocks install --server=http://luarocks.org/dev luarocks 2.2.3rc2

What's new since 2.2.3rc1:

* Unix: fixed detection of Lua in configure script. Thanks to François
Perrad for the report and Peter Melnichenko for the fix.

What's new since 2.2.2:

* Windows: major redesign of the install tree structure
* Windows: Auto setup of MSVC environments
* Improve error messages when tools are not installed
* CMake: generate 64-bit builds when appropriate
* Improve check of location of config files
* MacOSX: set MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET using env
* Remove --extensions flag; use rockspec_format instead
* New `luarocks config` command to query configuration
* Improved UI for messages when external deps are missing
* Unix: Robustness improvement in configure script
* Plus tweaks and bugfixes. See the changelog for details.

This release features new commits by myself, Peter Melnichenko, Thijs
Schreijer, Ignacio Burgueño, Ruslan Kiianchuk, Peter Jas, Philipp
Janda, @xpol, @tst2005. The luarocks.org server is maintained by Leaf
Corcoran. We thank everyone who sent comments, submitted bug reports
and contributed rockspecs to the repository!

As always, all kinds of feedback is greatly appreciated.

Thank you, enjoy!
