Please note that this is NOT a final version. Use it at your own risk. The internal beta testing has been performed and no critical issues were found. You can try this beta version if you would like to test/ review new functionality and provide your feedback before final release. It is much easier to change functionality while MLO is in beta so your feedback and findings are appreciated (please post it in separated threads with clear subjects). Please note that participation in MLO public beta review is voluntary.
