Update: RC2 testing in progress.
As promised last week, we are very close to the 2.3 release. We'd like to run a release candidate testing first (RC1), so we'll start this today.
As a special gesture to the donors and contributors to the ML project, we would like to thank them by giving them access to the release candidate in the forum section accessible to contributors and supporters. Currently we match donors and forum members by hand, so if we miss any of you, please contact me or Bart via PM.
For providing testing feedback, you will have to complete a small quiz. Your feedback will help us fix any remaining problems and announce a release date for the stable v2.3, which will be available to those who donate at least 10 euro to keep us running. After three weeks, this version will become free for everybody.
ML 2.3 RC1 works on Canon 5D Mark II 2.1.2, 550D 1.0.9, 60D 1.1.1, 600D 1.0.2, 50D 1.0.9 and 500D 1.1.1.
Thanks to your help, we have covered all our funding needs for now. Please consider donating to EFF for us, they do a great work in defending your digital rights, including the right to run third party software on your own devices!
Download 2.3 RC1 - if you are a supporter
very happy about new version, and I am ready to test it on my Canon 550D, but have problems with donations cos paypal doesn't support my contry - Macedonia. Paypal will start supporting our country in September 2012. So is there any chance to get and test the latest 2.3 RC1 version of Magic Lantern
tnx
congratulations

probably compiling from source... wich will i do tomorrow.. but i wont share anything since alex wouldn't be okay with i think...
coding experience is awesome, getting it for free before others, and you can even mess with the code yourself
alex and staff:
don't get me wrong... i would donate but i just don't have any money to do so..
but i will help as much as i cancongratulations

I guess you will get the stable version sooner than paypal supporting your country
I hope someone helps you supporting ML tough
While I've been a supporter for the past year, I thought it was time once again to help the project and so I donated an extra $50 U.S. / 40 Euro's today.
The money we donate goes to buy new cameras, such as the 5D Mark III that will be needed to finish the move of ML to that camera, and of course the T4i/650D is now out too.
If everyone who downloaded Magic Lantern since December would just give $1, the ML team would have all the equipment they need, but charity doesn't really work that way. It turns out that only about 5% of users who are getting something for free, ever bother to make a donation. I'd like to hope that all of us who are benefiting from this great effort would dig in and at least give a little something - even if it's only a few Euros or $5; it all helps!

I've already done my second donation but with a different paypal email from the one registered in the forum.
Is it a problem?
Thanks in advance

jk jk I'll donate later this week once all my bills are paid, if I donate for the rc1 does that mean I'll get access to the stable release before the 3 weeks? If I could donate more I would but funds aren't readily available atm.thanks for your hard work!
