Koha 1.2.1 is ready! After almost a month of planning, coding, testing, and tweaking we've put together a new version of Koha for your book lending pleasure. Koha 1.2.1 represents a major improvement over 1.2.0. We've spent a great deal of time working on the installer/upgrader, and using these tools are now the recommended way of installing Koha on your system. Koha 1.2.1 includes our new manual, which should help you get up and running faster. The Z39.50 sub-system has been overhauled and is now much better (and easier to install to boot!). We've also cleaned up a number of bugs that crept into the 1.2.0 release -- and begun to build up our testing procedures to reduce new bugs in future releases. Please download the latest release of Koha (and find out lots more about the project) at <http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/koha/>. We encourage you to get this new release and give it a spin. We think you'll like what you see. We plan on continuing to improve Koha, and would love to have you come along on this exciting journey.
