I would personally like to thank a lot of people in making this release possible. I'm not going to mention everyone, so if you are left out, know that I am thanking you in my heart.
Special thanks goes to:
phppp - for being there when I needed you
skalpa - for supporting me in my efforts by at least hinting that I am not going in the totally wrong direction 
Herko - for those totally insane feature suggestions that always made me laugh
MarcoFR, dheltzel and many more - for great testing and feedback
And remember:
THIS IS A RELEASE CANDIDATE ONLY AND NOT SUITABLE FOR PRODUCTION SITES
However, translators should be able to take the language files and make translations for XOOPS 2.2 - I don't think we will be adding or removing many language constants now. One or two, perhaps, but nothing major.
