This release fixes the bugs with SBM/Archives Page and WordPress 2.6. Subversion & nightly users: this release is revision 718. A list of bug fixes is here.
If you're using the K2 Sidebar Manager, you will need to turn it off in K2 Options before upgrading to K2 1.0-RC7. After you have upgraded to K2 1.0-RC7, copy k2-disable-widgets.php (found at k2/app/includes/) to your plugins folder and activate it. This applies to all versions of WordPress that K2 supports.

Still some bugs to take care of, but Release Candidate 3 should cover your most immediate needs.
We cannot fix what we don't know about, and we won't know about it if you don't file a bug. And we do want to fix as much as possible. So, if you have a problem, first check the list of current bugs, if there isn't already a similar issue, file a new one.
Go grab your copy of RC2. I'm hoping this'll fix the SBM reordering problems. For now though, please be aware that IE7 might still have problems.
And of course, if you're an IE7 expert and you have some time on your hands, let me know, cuz we could sure use your help.
Alright, this is the one we've been swinging for since we started all those years ago. This is the road to 1.0, or K2.0 as it were. This is the first release candidate, and we're very proud of it.
We've been throwing in some serious hours over the last couple of weeks to make sure we were ready for WordPress 2.3, which is on track for release a few days from now, and which, due to fundamental changes, breaks v0.9.6. So if you're planning on grabbing WordPress 2.3 as soon as it hits the shelves, you'll want to upgrade to RC1 as soon as possible.
A word of caution however: Because so many things have been upgraded since v0.9.6, a lot of the code hasn't actually seen as much usage as the v0.9.6 code, and thus you should hold off until RC2 with upgrading if you like your stability over your 'bling'.
So, what's new? Well, to be honest there's just too much to list. The most obvious stuff will be... well, obvious, and the rest should just make everything a little bit better. In other words, you're better off just take her up for a trial run.
And as usual, please file an issue for any problems you run into, and we'll look into it as soon as possible. And if you see Steve or Ben around, let them know they did a hell of a job over the last couple of weeks.
PS: For safety purposes, v0.9.6 is still available.
