-Shortly after releasing the Release Candidate of pgAdmin III v1.2.0,
-we noticed a problem on GTK using it quite uncomfortable. Additionally, the PostgreSQL 8.0 server had a change
-in a system table shortly after its Beta-4 version, which prevents it from being accessed by pgAdmin III versions
-prior to RC2. Consequently, the pgAdmin Development Team decided to roll a second Release Candidate to fix this.
-for the PostgreSQL database system.
-</p>
-<p>
-Additionally, some minor fixes that have been included in this release, this can be checked in our <a href="development.php#changelog">changelog</a>.

-<p>
-If you still find bugs or problems, report them immediately to the <a href="mailto:pgadmin-support(at)postgresql(dot)org">pgAdmin-support mailing list</a>, so we can fix them for the final V1.2.0.

-The pgAdmin Development Team are proud to announce the release candidate
-of pgAdmin III v1.2.0, the well-known GUI administration tool
-for the PostgreSQL database system.
-</p>
-<p>
-About one year after the last maintenance release V1.0.2 of pgAdmin III, the new version V1.2 with many enhancements
-and full PostgreSQL 8.0 support is approching a mature status. Over the past year and especially the passed beta period
-we received a lot of feedback and wishes from users, which now have been addressed in V1.2. We are quite confident that
-the status pgAdmin III has reached now is mature, and we're looking forward to release have a final V1.2.0 release
-quite soon.

-All fixes that have been included in this release can be checked in our <a href="development.php#changelog">changelog</a>.

-The pgAdmin Development Team are pleased to announce the third Beta
-version of pgAdmin III v1.2.0, the well-known GUI administration tool
-for the PostgreSQL database system.
-</p>
-<p>
-Again, we were able to fix a lot of issues that have been discovered by our diligent beta testers. Thanks to all of you!
-Here's an excerpt from the changelog covering all changes since Beta-2:
-<ul>
-<li>use wxWidgets 2.5.3
-<li>change unsigned conversion for oids
-<li>Prevent StatusBar from being overwritten by Toolbar
-<li>Connect to databases with special names
-<li>review object owner code regarding pgsql versions
-<li>remove maximize button on MSW
-<li>Fix new server ssl option duplication on connect failure
-<li>Fix cast property crash
-<li>Use PostgreSQL's list of keywords for syntax highlighting
-<li>Fix adding columns with constraints using table properties on 7.3 and 7.4
-<li>Drop rows correctly when selected in reverse in the edit grid. Also, confirm drop first.
-<li>Dynamically link libpq/OpenSSL for sensible installation with Win32 PostgreSQL
-</ul>
-We've been planning to release RC1 right now, but the pgAdmin Development Team decided to have this third beta to make sure that the switch to the official wxWidgets 2.5.3 doesn't invent additional problems. This move from our own wxWidgets snapshot to the official version is a big advantage in terms of linux distribution integration of pgAdmin III, so we took this step now instead of delaying it for the next major version.

-As this is still a beta release and although you killed many bugs during these past 15 days, there may be more well hidden bugs to be found...
