Radiant 0.6 is comming

OK, folks. Radiant 0.6 is due to be released this Saturday baring any
show stoppers. Please let us know about anything that absolutely must be
fixed between now and then.

If you can, please give the mental branch a try:

  1. Download the rc2 gem:

    http://radiantcms.org/downloads/radiant-0.6.0rc2.gem

  2. Install it using:

    gem install radiant-0.6.0rc2.gem

  3. Use the Radiant command to create a fresh project:

    radiant -d sqlite3 path/to/your/project

  4. Run the new bootstrap rake task:

    cd path/to/your/project
    rake production db:bootstrap

  5. Switch to the mental branch:

    rake radiant:freeze:edge BRANCH=mental

  6. Update your database:

    rake production db:migrate

  7. Update your public stuff:

    rake radiant:update

The upgrade path should be as simple as creating a new radiant project,
importing your old database, and running rake db:migrate. Also you will
probably need to update any old plugins to use the new extension system.
There a list of extensions that are compatible with 0.6 on the Radiant
wiki (http://dev.radiantcms.org/radiant/wiki/Extensions). Remember to
backup your database before upgrading.

Please let us know if you have any problems. Particularly, if you have
problems related to upgrading.

0.6 has been delayed just a bit. We are still polishing off a few
things. Expect a release early next week, possibly Monday.

There were a ton checkins today:

Again, keep us updated with those last min bug reports.
