Software Update: Redmine 2.0.0/1.4.2

Spread the love

Redmine is a web application that focuses on project management. It is written in Ruby on Rails and released under the gpl license. It includes an issue tracking system, Gantt charts, wikis, forums, and integration with SCM systems like Git and Mercurial. For more information, please refer to this page. The developers have released versions 2.0.0 and 1.4.2 with the following announcements:

Redmine 2.0.0 released

Redmine 2.0.0 drops Rails 2.3 (which is no longer maintained by the Rails team) in favor of the latest Rails 3 release, and it’s now available for download at Rubyforge. New features will come with the next 2.1.0 release.

Efforts have been made to ease the upgrade of existing Redmine plugins but most of them will need a bit of work from their authors in order to be compatible with Rails 3. So if you’re using some plugins, you may want to wait before switching to Redmine 2.x.

Redmine 1.4.2 released

Redmine 1.4.2 is a maintenance release that fixes 8 defects, including a compatibility issue with the latest ruby1.9.3 release (patch level 194), several improvements and translations updates. You can review the changes in the Changelog and download this new release at Rubyforge.

Redmine 1.4.x releases stick to Rails 2.3 and will be maintained during the next months for those who won’t switch to the forthcoming Redmine 2.0.0 and Rails 3.
