I am absolutely delighted to announce the release of OpenMRS Platform 2.0.0 Beta. Now we are just one step away from the Platform 2.0.0 final release which will mark a new era for OpenMRS Platforms and will align us with the latest tech stack and REST’ful architecture. The Release Notes should get you excited to take it out for a test-run. You can download the standalone and war file from here.
Besides the offline ways of trying it out, Reference Application on Platform 2.0 will be deployed on uat-platform.openmrs.org . If you want to be notified about it or would like to be a beta-tester, please let us know by filling this form.
We would highly appreciate your invaluable input and feedback on how we can make Platform 2.0 the next big thing for the OpenMRS community. Please feel free to reach out to me regarding any suggestions/ feature requests/ bugs you may come across.
I would like to thank our developers for their brilliant contributions in making this release possible.
In the coming days, you can keep up with action related to Platform 2.0.0 via Talk, or pinging me(@maany) or Wyclif / Daniel/ Rafal on the IRC.
