Welcome to the new Pootle 2.5.1-rc1 *Released on 1 December 2013*
We almost missed our *6 month release cycle*<http://docs.translatehouse.org/projects/pootle/en/latest/developers/release.html#release-process-principles>! Many changes have gone into Pootle 2.5.1 which follows on from 2.5.0 released in May. Pootle 2.5.1 has been in production for a number of users, so although it is a new official release, we’ve had many people running their production Pootle server off this code. This includes Mozilla<http://mozilla.locamotion.org/>and Evernote <http://translate.evernote.com/pootle/>. So you are in good company. For those who can’t wait you might be interested to know what we’ve got planned on our *roadmap*<http://docs.translatehouse.org/projects/pootle/en/latest/developers/roadmap.html#roadmap>for Pootle 2.5.2.
