[ledgersmb-devel] LedgerSMB 1.6.0-rc2 released

Hi,

After the LedgerSMB 1.6.0-rc1 release of two weeks ago, work has continued and we've found and solved several issues. We're now releasing 1.6.0-rc2 with the fixes listed below for your testing. Please send feedback to ..hidden.. or file your issues through GitHub (https://github.com/ledgersmb/LedgerSMB/issues).

Fixes in LedgerSMB 1.6.0-rc2 (over 1.6.0-rc1):

- Add more scripts to help resolve schema migration problems

- Fix mailing of invoices, orders, etc.

- Fix UTF-8 encoding issue with schema migration check output

- Fix CSV import code not processing uploaded input correctly

- Correctly detect UTF-8 (due to BOM) on uploaded form content (files)

- Fix e-mail attachments

- Fix and clean up LedgerSMB::File module and children (with tests)

Please note that we're releasing 1.6.0-rc2; this means we think this code is production ready and that the database schema is stable. You're highly encouraged to try this version, however, if you run it in production (even though some of the developers are), you should consider yourself an early adopter. We'd highly appreciate your testing and feedback.

For an overview of the changes in version 1.6, please check our release notes: https://ledgersmb.org/content/16-release-notes; for an in-depth listing of the changes since 1.5, see our Changelog: https://github.com/ledgersmb/LedgerSMB/blob/master/Changelog#L2-L60
