How many release candidates are we going to have before 7.x-2.0 stable?
Simply put: as many as we need!
The theme is pretty stable as is but might not quite there yet (although many have been using it in production with great results). Please help test it and file issues to make this a SOLID release! Thanks!
These are the issues blocking a 7.x-2.0 release
#D7AX - I pledge to make this theme as accessible as it can be. If you find any flaws, please submit an issue. Help me fix them if you can.
