+June 26, 2005
+
+MediaWiki 1.5 beta 1 is a preview release, pretty much feature complete,
+of the new 1.5 release series. There are several known and likely a number
+of unknown bugs; it is not recommended to use this release in a production
+environment but would be recommended for testing in mind of an upcoming
+deployment.
+
+A number of significant changes have been made since the alpha releases,
+including database changes and a reworking of the user permissions settings.
+See the file UPGRADE for details of upgrading and changing your prior
+configuration settings for the new system.
