When is the release date for OpenLP 2.0?
----------------------------------------
*It will be ready when it's ready!* We do not have fixed dates, but we have

If you take part in the `development <http://wiki.openlp.org/Development:Getting_Started>`_,
start to `test OpenLP <http://wiki.openlp.org/Testing:Getting_Started>`_ and
`provide feedback <http://wiki.openlp.org/Help:Contents>`_ this will speed up
the progress.

Should I use this beta release at Church in my Sunday services?
---------------------------------------------------------------
As long as you have taken the time to run through your service a couple of times
on your target machine, the answer to this question is **yes**. The OpenLP
team believes that OpenLP 2.0 beta 1 is stable enough to be used in Sunday
services. As of beta 1, there are a good number of churches already using
version 2.0 successfully. The OpenLP team works hard to make sure each release
is solid, but cannot yet guarantee that everything works perfectly, or even
correctly.
If however your congregation is made up of 85 year old women who snarl when you
suggest replacing the gas lamps with electric light bulbs and consider the pipe
organ too loud and modern, then we recommend sticking with version 1.2 for now.
As of beta 1, version 1.2 of OpenLP is "put out to pasture" - no more
development or even bugfixes will be performed on that version.

Is there a manual or any documentation for 2.0?
-----------------------------------------------
Some folks are working on a brand new manual for OpenLP 2.0. You can find the
latest version of this manual at http://manual.openlp.org. If you need help,
use the live chat feature or ask in the forums. If you would like to help write
the manual, please let us know - we are always happy for new volunteers to join
the team and contribute to the project.
