Platform 2.1.0-alpha Release Notes
- Darius Jazayeri
Release Date: Friday, March 3, 2017
This version of the OpenMRS Platform is a pre-release and is not ready for production use. Its purpose is to give users an idea of what to expect in the upcoming release and help discover any possible obscure new bugs.
What's New
Some interesting features in the 2.1 line will be:
Faster patient searches (using Lucene under the hood)
Loosening restrictions on merging patients who have orders
Simple approach for developers to add caches programmatically
We expect that 2.1.x will be the first non-LTS release line of the OpenMRS Platform. Read more about this means in the (future) release notes for the beta, or final release.
