We are happy to announce the second beta of Jaws 0.8.0 (What we do in life echoes in eternity). And as you know... this is a release which 'should' work better than beta1 but NOT be used in production systems.

As usual, we provide three tarballs:

• jaws-core: Include core and core gadgets (useful if you want to use Jaws as a framework).
• jaws-blog-system: include same as jaws-core but also some gadgets like
  Banner, Blog, Chatbox, FileBrowser, etc..). Useful if you want to use
  Jaws as a blog system and a theme.
• jaws-complete: include everything

You can get these tarballs from our site.

Now, some notes about this version before you start using it:

1. Since this version ONLY users running 0.7.x can upgrade. Previous
   versions are officially unsupported.
2. Make a backup of your database, you are warned!
