Here's the command that will get you the latest release without all of the admin directories. cvs export -r e107v-616 e107. On windows in Tortoise/CVS find a directory that you want to download the file to. Right click it and hit "CVS Checkout ...". Then click on the "Choose branch or tag" radio button. Now click on the Revision tab and click "Update list ...". Now select e107v-616 from the dropdown. Next click on the options tab and under "Purpose of checkout", click on "export". We really spent a lot of time hammering out bugs for this release. But I'm sure a couple will slip through. You can come here and visit the friendly forums for any support needed. Documentation for new features is either here or on the way. Check out my latest two articles for info on nested comments. Many thanks to jalist of course for everything. And thanks to my fellow dev team members McFly, cameron, lolo irie and vilhelm. And a big thanks to our team of dedicated testers JuhaH, HeX0r, bkwon, Knight, ALGORHYTHM and streaky. Update ... I've pulled the upgrade files for a minute. If you've uploaded them to your site already, then you'll have overwritten your news backend files. You can edit and update any news item to recreate the files. Sorry for this inconvenience. Alright, upgrades are back up now. Once again sorry about that oversight. As always when upgrading check in the admin area for a database upgrade. Also when upgrading from a version older than 0.615 it's easiest to use the full install. When you use the full install to upgrade, You must not upload e107_config.php or install.php in the root directory. Uploading e107_config.php will overwrite your config settings.
