Our second round of release candidates is now available for download! The ODK 2.0 Tool Suite (suite will be renamed as part of ODK transition) is an alternative to the ODK 1.x Tool Suite designed for complex workflows and information management rather than a replacement. Since 2.0 is based on a different set of standards than 1.x, a simple migration path does not yet exist. Information about the 2.0 Tool Suite can be found at [ODK-X documentation — ODK-X Docs](http://opendatakit-dev.cs.washington.edu/2_0_tools). Documentation about the rev 212 release candidates is available at [http://opendatakit-dev.cs.washington.edu/2\_0\_tools/release/212](http://opendatakit-dev.cs.washington.edu/2_0_tools/release/212). We look forward to receiving feedback through the forum, GitHub, or email as we work towards a production release.

The 2.0 Tool Suite consists of Survey, Tables, Services, App Designer, Suitcase, and Sync Endpoint. The release notes for the 2.0 Tool Suite can be found at [Tools Suite Release Notes · getodk/getodk Wiki · GitHub](https://github.com/opendatakit/opendatakit/wiki/Tools-Suite-Release-Notes).

The rev 212 RC2 APKs are compatible with our new Sync Endpoint and Aggregate 1.4.15.

Documentation for getting started with the Sync Endpoint is available at:
