Dear friends,
After the release of Joomla! 3.7 Beta 4, the Joomla! Project has carried out Joomla! 3.7.0 Candidate 1. This release is ONLY intended for testing and there is no upgrade path from a Release Candidate. Please do not upgrade any of your production sites to this Joomla release.
Extension and template developers are encouraged to work with this release in order to prepare extensions for the stable release of Joomla! CMS 3.7.0. Besides, it's strongly recommended to use Isis template instead of the Hathor template to work with the new features shipping with this release.
