There were a LOT of users in the forums and here asking how to downgrade and
I (and others) even made a tutorial for it because I was getting asked so
much. I'm all for using the latest as long as the latest only ADDS to my
experience. If I have to spend my time trying to regain the functionality
and stability of the old version then I and the companies I'm consulting for
are losing money by upgrading. I'm not sure what happened with 2.0.x but
something was amiss. Ultimately I need stability first and functionality
second. I will be trying 2.1 in a test environment and go from there.

Now they have two problems.
