Ægir is a set of contributed modules for Drupal that aims to solve the problem of managing a large number of Drupal sites. It does this by providing you with a simple Drupal based hosting front end for your entire network of sites. To deploy a new site you simply have to create a new Site node.

This release marks the first effort to port the Aegir frontend to Drupal 6. This version has known bugs which keep it from being released in full along with the Drupal 5 version. We still wish to make this release available to speed up testing and make sure we don't lag too much between the two versions.

So this release focuses on porting the frontend to Drupal 6. Amongst other thing, this means integration with the Drupal 6 install profile wizard API, which allows us to remove a lot of crud and hacks from the hosting module.

This release is the first release candidate of our 0.2 development cycle, which has been focused on complete support for running multiple concurrent Drupal releases, and managing upgrades of sites between Drupal releases. This release has been focussed on improving some our experimental multi-client functionality, as well as fixing bugs for our final release.

Aegir is in code freeze, and only bug fixes and usability improvements will be allowed in. The final release of Aegir will occur shortly after the 2.0 final release of Drush, and we will only be making changes to Aegir to maintain compatibility with Drush upstream.
