The CakePHP core team is proud to announce the immediate availability of 
CakePHP 2.0.0-RC3[1]. 2.0.0-RC3 marks the end of the release candidates for 
2.0.0. If no critical issues arise during the life time of the RC, we should 
expect a stable release really soon. As usual, mo additional new features or 
backwards incompatible changes will be made to CakePHP 2.0. Read the 
changelog[2] or download the release[1].

Since 2.0.0-RC2 there have been 82 commits and 24 tickets resolved. There 
have been no major features added since the beta release. Some of the 
changes include:

   - Ensured the stability of test cases for the CakePHP core
   - Refactored how the joins key for Model::find() is treated, this means 
   the ability to auto add the table prefix for join tables and cleaner code
   - Making locking file caching the default. Locking files prevents many 
   issues with unserialize() warnings caused by partially written files.
   - Now custom Authorization classes can implement their own password 
   hashing. See this article for a clear example[6]

Documentation efforts are on the good track and we are very happy because of 
the very valuable contributions from the community. If you feel that 
anything f the new book is missing or inaccurate please follow send us a 
patch on github! The API page[6] is already up with the updated method 
documentation for all CakePHP 2 classes.

We're also happy to see that http://ci.cakephp.org [4] is proving key to 
ensure the quality of CakePHP releases. This tool allows the team to quickly 
tests avery change made on the code against all supported datasources. We're 
proud to announce that this might be the first time in the project's history 
that absolutely all tests pass uniformly in all supported datasources.

A huge thanks to all involved in terms of both contributions through 
commits, tickets, documentation edits, and otherwise contribute to the 
framework. Without you there would be no CakePHP.
