+<p>We are pleased to announce the first release candidate of LyX 2.0.0.<br>
+Since the last beta releases became stable enough for a regular work
+we switched to release candidate, freezed new development and focused
+on bugfixing to make the final release even more polished.</p>
+
+<p>The file RELEASE-NOTES lists some known issues and problems compared
+to the current stable releases (LyX 1.6). We strongly recommend to read
+this file for packagers of LyX on various platforms and distributions.</p>
+
+<p>Compared to the last beta versions modifier keys Control and Option are
+treated separately on Mac OSX. The distributed key binding now uses the
+Control key only for most of the commands.</p>
+
+<p>We are grateful for any feedback you sent us regarding the bugs you
+encounter while testing the beta release.</p>
+
+<p>LyX 2.0.0 will be culmination of more than two years of hard work
+and you can find an overview of the new features
+<a href=\"http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/NewInLyX20\";>here</a>.</p>
+
+<p>As with any major release we come with lot of new features but also
+bugs -- so while we encourage curious users to test this release, people
+who rely on solid and stable application should stay with 1.6 releases.
+Please report the problems and bugs at our lists or bug tracker.</p>
+
+<p>Source tarballs and binaries can be found at our
+<a href=\"ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/devel/lyx-2.0/rc1 \">ftp server</a>.</p>");
