CakePHP 2.4.0-RC2 released

The CakePHP core team is happy to announce the immediate availability of the second release candidate for 2.4.0[1].

CakeFest 2013[2] is just around the corner. If you haven't already bought your ticket do it now. It will be a great time to learn way beyond just CakePHP, this year we feature talks about performance, the future of PHP and modern javascript frontend frameworks. The core team is making great strides for having a new stable version for CakeFest and workshops will be based off the great new features next release is included.

A short list of changes you can expect in 2.4.0-RC2 are:

* Config data between Email and Transport classes now merges correctly.

* CakeTime::timeAgoInWords() uses fuzzy terms when time is below thresholds.

* Confirm values are now correctly encoded. This was a regression introduced in 2.4.0-RC1.

* DbAcl uses INNER joins instead of LEFT joins to help increase performance.

* CakeEmail::template() can now disable rendering the layout as documented.

* Formatting number in european locales now works correctly.

* Translation strings were updated to exclude non-translable content.

* RedirectRoute now persists parameters using the same methods as normal routes.

* Components with settings are now mocked better.

A huge thanks to all involved in terms of both contributions through commits, tickets, documentation edits, and those whom have otherwise contributed to the framework. Without you there would be no CakePHP. Download a packaged release [4].
