We’re pleased to announce the release of Zenphoto 1.2.8. The changelog is the same as the Release Candidate a short time ago.

The first release candidate for Zenphoto 1.2.8 is now available for download and testing from our download page. Please note that we have taken down the official 1.2.7 release as we feel the RC is more stable. This mainly because of the recent quite major bug discovery.
