Hi all,

I have just tagged v2.0RC2 on Github, meaning we are close to releasing
Tracks 2.0!
I have tagged it with RC2, because on Github in de docs Tracks was already
called RC1 since October and I have seen some reports where people call it
RC1. So to avoid confusion...

If you weren't running a recent version of Tracks now it the time to help
and try this upcoming release. 
I'd like to hear about what you like and dislike and what you miss in Tracks
and post it on the forums
(http://www.getontracks.org/forums/viewthread/839/)
Also take a look at the installation manual and tell us if it is sufficient
for you to install/upgrade Tracks and do not forget to read the part about
removing the old cached stylesheets and javascripts

Please note that someone has started a use manual on the wiki
(http://www.getontracks.org/wiki/Users-Manual). Anyone like to help out and
write some stuff about setting up and using Tracks? A user manual if often
asked for...

A lot of effort went into Tracks 2.0 and we have seen quite a few new (and
old :-) ) contributors helping out with patches. Thanks to you all!

I have created a 2.0_branch on github for this release. So go get it :-)

>From the CHANGELOG:

New features:
1. Redesign of menus and introduction of a context menu per todo
2. You can now set the default tags for a project which are added
automatically
   to a new todo in that project if no tags are supplied

on
   another action will hide it until the dependency is completed

fixes
8. The project description supports markup
9. support for Mail.app (message://) and OneNote (onenote://) links in notes
10.The email receiver is now able to receive email from several email
adresses.
   In site.yml this could be set to the previous behavior (receive from one
   address per user)
11.You can enable open signup (like in tracks.tra.in)
12.Cleanup of context page
13.Support for CAS for login
14.Support for adding Tracks as a GMail Widget with instructions on the

   Dutch. See http://www.getontracks.org/wiki/Translating-Tracks it you like
to
   help translating Tracks to other languages

Under the hood
1. All js is migrated to jQuery and most ui-widgets are migrated to
jQuery-UI
2. Cucumber is added for integration testing. The RSpec stories are migrated
to cucumber
3. Upgraded to rails 2.3.11 and upgraded most gems/plugins
