Shiny Drupal 6

Finally! After much work during the last months, 4 betas and 4 release candidates, it's now official! Drupal 6 is out! It ships with a revamped easy to use installer, a new drag and drop interface, OpenID out of the box, improved Internationalization, and an Update Status module which will help you to keep your site and modules up to date. Also for the developers, new APIs have been integrated in core such as Schema API and Batch API. You can find more details about all the other new features of Drupal 6 in the announcement.

This release is a big reward for the hundreds of developers who put much time and patience into building such a great product. Congrats to Gábor for leading all of us!
