DNNProductsOver the past year the DotNetNuke team has been working hard to improve the pace of our releases and to provide the community with the opportunity to participate in beta testing in order to provide feedback prior to a release.  As of this morning DotNetNuke 5.6.2 beta packages are now available for download from our Beta Downloads page.  We have made a number of fixes to the platform and incorporated a couple dozen performance enhancements.  5.6.2 further stabilizes the 5.6 platform and should be a solid foundation for your DotNetNuke site.  Please keep in mind that this is just a beta and is not intended for production use.  Upgrades to the final 5.6.2 release are not supported.  We still have a few additional issues that we expect to be resolved prior to our Mid-March release but welcome any feedback.
