Hello,

We're very pleased and proud to announce the release of Typo 5.2 "Helmut Newton" for Rails 2.2, the famous blogging engine, 4 months after our last release.

Typo 5.2 is more than a simple port from Rails 2.0.2 to Rails 2.2, it's a major, deep, rewrite of the application. We've ditched lot of code, aiming at stability and performance, dividing Typo's memory footprint by 4 on some large blogs.

We've also fixed a huge, very huge amount of bugs, too many to be told here, actually, from functionnal aberrations to security breaches. See the CHANGLOG for more information.

There are also some new features.

* A brand new admin, focusing on both efficiency and usability.
* The new editor, coming with easy to use XHTML quicktags toolbar for people who don't like FCK Editor. * Search engine optimization everywhere on your blog. Too much to say here. * A new theme catalogue, allowing you to browse and download up to date themes from your Typo install. * Our old code syntax highlighting plugin has been replaced with Coderay. * Excerpts, that allow you to display on your index something completely different as on your article, which won't appear on your RSS feed. * Our <em>live search</em>, which was so hype 2 years ago has been replaced with a more traditionnal and clearer search engine and left as a plugin.

And many more you can read about on the official release note:
