[TYPO3-announce] Announcing TYPO3 4.7.0beta1

[Steffen Ritter]

Dear TYPO3 friends,

Today, the community released the first beta version of TYPO3 4.7.

With releasing Beta1 we have reached "Feature Freeze" for the upcoming 
version and will now concentrate on fixing the remaining bugs. This 
means that there will be no changes to the public API as well as to the 
SQL structure anymore. TYPO3 4.7 will ship with an interesting set of 
new features, possibilities and bug fixes. Some of the originally 
planned features, such as ExtJS 4 integration and the File Abstraction 
Layer, are shifted to the next TYPO3 version but there's plenty of new 
stuff besides that shipped in Beta1 and will be available in TYPO3 
version 4.7.

For details about the release and the amazing new features, please see:

Keep in mind that this is a developer "snapshot" and should not yet be
used in production. The final release of 4.7.0 is scheduled for April,
24th 2012.
