-Pre-release of LyX version 2.0.0 (beta 2)
-==========================================
+Release of LyX version 2.0.0 (release candidate 2)
+==================================================
 
-We are pleased to announce the second public pre-release of LyX 2.0.0.
+We are pleased to announce the second release candidate of LyX 2.0.0.
 
-Due to the many reports we received, support for polyglossia, XeTeX's new
-language interface and babel replacement, has been added. In the same vein
-we added basic and experimental support for LuaTeX as well.
-Apart from these better support for sub/superscript has been added and
-externally launched documents are now possible to load in an already running
-LyX instance.
+Due to the numerous requests we added more sets of toolbar icons (based on
+Oxygen and LibreOffice themes) which can be easily changed in preferences.
 
-Please report the problems and bugs at our lists or bug tracker and
-also note that this release is for testing purposes only. Users are
-encouraged to use current 1.6 stable release for any serious work.
+The file RELEASE-NOTES lists some known issues and problems compared
+to the current stable releases (LyX 1.6). We strongly recommend to read
+this file for packagers of LyX on various platforms and distributions.
+
+As with any major release we come with lot of new features but also
+bugs -- so while we encourage curious users to test this release, people
+who rely on solid and stable application should stay with 1.6 releases.
+Please report the problems and bugs at our lists or bug tracker.
