(They contributed managing, patches, reports and something to 2.1.2! The list may not be perfect)

Next version
- 2.1.3 --- October or September
- 2.2.0 --- December or January. It may need to go through Beta.

Before the project begins working for 2.1.3 and 2.2.0, there is the important work we must do. It's reconstruction of the developer network. Many users don't know that the project doesn't take the centralism. Now, the project has a couple of active comittors who work as general slave for managing patches and others. But, the project doesn't prepare enough documents, so many users don't understand the new style enough since 2.1.0. Document contributors don't exist in the project, so the project stops programing and begins preparation of documents.

Here is the important concept. Difference during core, base and module is partitions of software design, not difference of human's role and human's authority. If you want to watch the hero who exercises leadership in this project, you need to go to other projects. The XOOPS Cube project is anarchy and the ultimate freedom.

To get more contributors, the project will try to organize documents again. Most documents need your help for translation, reviews and correction. If you're good at English, correct documents written in poor English. If you're good at French, Korean, Chinese and other languages, translate documents in your mother language.

Click the discussion tab of a wiki page to talk about the content of the page. "Get Involved" explains how to take a part in the project. And, "Submit a Patch" explains how to use the patch tracker. The project welcomes your help everytime. Wiki and Tracker are difficult a little, but the project has to attain the same level as other standard open source project at the beginning. So, do master these systems.

Lastly, this version got maximum contributions. Therefore, it's success in freedom software and open source world. Thank you for your contributions. Keep your great work!

Well, I deleted RC archives everytime, because some users can not download the latest version correctly. I think we don't delete any archives from open space...

This screen shot was captured before RC archives were removed. It shows download count.
