Release Notes 2.2

OpenMRS 2.2 includes the latest platform release i.e. 1.11.2 compared to 1.10.0 and new versions of lots of modules.

This release doesn't bring many user-visible new features to the reference application (Except for the Chart Search feature and Appointment Scheduling), but it has allowed us to tackle various issues in each module.  It allows us to illustrate how an OpenMRS reference application release contains hundreds of under-the-hood improvements to modules that implementers and developers can leverage as described in the previous release and gives us an idea of how it might continue in future.

I would like to specifically thank Wyclif Luyima,  Ryan Yates, Darius Jazayeri, Rafal Korytkowski, Burke Mamlin,Michael Downey, Daniel Kayiwa, Jaime Thomas, Joseph Kaweesi,   Cintia Del Rio and the Infrastructure Team for making contributions at critical times and who made it possible to release properly.

And as mentioned earlier we had an extensive period and I would like to thank everyone who participated in it and allowed us to release a reliable product. Special thanks to Ada Yeung,Sara Armson, Mike Seaton, Craig A, Matthew Ssemakadde,Tharika and David DeSimone for taking a special interest and testing OpenMRS 2.2 either in the All Hands on Deck Event or individually.
