Releases/1.2.0beta1

This is a beta release of Mahara 1.2. Things will be broken! However, we are now soliciting bug reports, should you find a bug. You can report bugs to the tracker:

https://eduforge.org/tracker/?func=a...d=176&atid=739

Please choose 'HEAD/trunk' as the version of your bug.

The new themes and LEAP2A Import are still under development, so you should be aware that bug reports in these areas may be out of date before the next release.

NOTE:  Themes have changed significantly in Mahara 1.2.  Templates from 1.1.x or any earlier version of Mahara will not work.

YOU MUST REMOVE ALL OLD TEMPLATES FROM YOUR DOCROOT BEFORE INSTALLATION.

The easiest way to do this is to completely wipe all files apart from config.php before unzipping this release.

Upgrading to this release is possible from Mahara 1.0.0 or later. This does not mean that this should be done on a live website! Instead, make a copy of your database and dataroot, set up a new Mahara using them, and test upgrading on that.

Upgrading from this release to any future release will not be supported either, so please perform any testing you might want to make on either a new install of this release or a copy of your site.
