Website Baker 2.x -> Stable -> 2.5.2
Release Notes:
After much hard work, the long-awaited Website Baker 2.5.2 has arrived!
I will try to keep this short, because I know you will be eager to get your hands on this hot, hot stuff!

Upgrade 2.5.1 to 2.5.2
--
Simply download update-2.5.1-to-2.5.2.zip and replace files in your existing install with these new ones.
Please note: if you have modified files included in this zip, you might want to look at the changes before replacing.

Upgrade 2.5.0 or lower to 2.5.2
--
Please upgrade from whatever version you are running to 2.5.1 first, then follow the instructions above to upgrade to 2.5.2.

Thanks
--
I would like to thank the many great people that make up the Website Baker community for their great work and contributions.
In particular, those who have contributed fixes for the many bugs found.

What's Next
--
Look-out for 3.x in the up-and-coming weeks!
There shouldn't be any more 2.x releases from now on, as 3.x should be the main focus.
However, if you find bugs in 2.5.2, you might see a 2.5.3 - not that there should be any bugs though. :)
For more information on version 3, visit http://www.wbhome.org/!

Enjoy!
