   16 Introduction
   17 
   18    The [7]WeBWorK Team is pleased to announce the release of [8]WeBWorK
   19    2.0 Preview Release 4. While it is intended primarily for testing,
   20    development, and evaluation of the new system, it is also suitable for
   21    use in live courses.
   22 
   23    This release includes almost all of the functionality of WeBWorK 1.9,
   24    and contains new functionality beyond what it possible with 1.9. New
   25    features since [9]PreviewRelease3 include:
   26 
   27      * architectural improvements
   28      * user interface improvements
   29      * web-based course management
   30      * new Set Maker feature for interactive set building
   31        (JohnJones[10]?)
   32      * many bug fixes
   33 
   34 Availability
   35 
   36    The complete system is distributed as two tarballs. One for the
   37    WeBWorK system itself, and one for the PG system, including a standard
   38    set of PG modules and macro files.
   39 
   40    Files are available below and on our SourceForge project page:

   66 Help
   67 
   68    If you need help installing or using [21]WeBWorK 2.0, visit the
   69    [22]WeBWorK discussion group and post your question there. The
   70    developers monitor this forum.
   71 
   72 Bug Reports & Feature Requests
   73 
   74    Submit bug reports and feature requests at
   75    [23]http://bugs.webwork.rochester.edu/. We can't fix bugs and add
   76    features if you don't tell us about them!
   77 
   78 Patches
   79 
   80    While we welcome patches of any sort, by patching against the latest
   81    CVS code, you save us and yourself time. A bug in Preview Release 4
   82    may be fixed in CVS, and we can more easily handle patches against the
   83    latest code. Check out the latest development version from CVS and
   84    patch against that. Consult the [24]WeBWorKCVS topic for more
   85    information.
