User Guide 8.x-2.0 released!

At long last, the copy editing of the User Guide is done! (If you've been a member of this group for a while, you should know what I'm talking about; if not, go browse the archives at https://groups.drupal.org/documentation for the last 1.5 years or so). I'd like to thank everyone who helped with editing tasks, and especially Jojy Alphonso (jojyja), who did the vast majority of the copy editing. THANK YOU!

So, the guide is in very good shape, and I just made an official release of version 8.x-2.0, corresponding to Drupal Core 8.2.x (which is supposed to be released soon). It should be live on Drupal.org soon, in HTML format, for your reading pleasure (not sure exactly when, since the reduced Drupal Association staff is pretty busy, but we're working on it). I'll post a link in a comment here when that happens.

Meanwhile, you can go to the User Guide project page and download the release, which contains all of the source files (which are written in AsciiDoc markup language), as well as PDF, ePub, and Mobi ebook versions (those are in the "ebooks" folder/directory of the archive you get when you download the project).

Enjoy!

Also... The next step will be to translate the User Guide into other languages. The enthusiastic and experienced Catalan and Hungarian language teams will be starting on that shortly, and refining the process so that hopefully the other language teams can get started soon as well. If you want to help translate the Guide, you should start by joining the translation team on https://localize.drupal.org for your language. Thanks!
