We know that many users are urgently waiting for the final stable release to be able to convert their current websites completely to Joomla 4. But we need at least this short official test phase before we can be start with a stable release.

What is still to do?
- Of course, the still open reported errors have to be fixed!
- The documentation for the new version is in progress and will be published or updated step by step.
- The translators will have to wait a little longer, as the new language files have not yet been uploaded to Transifex. We will make up for this in the next few days. But the new language definitions are not that extensive either.
