Derick Rethans has a quick post today about the first release canididate for the latest version of the XDebug software - version two - and it's release.

In the past few months I've been working on various fixes (and feature additions) for Xdebug. Most notable are the much improved code coverage and the new stack trace layout. All these changes made it into Xdebug 2.0.0RC1 which I just released through PECL.

Derick notes that there are a few more bugs/build fixes to work out in the debugger client before it can be included in the build. You can find out more information about xDebug and grab this latest release over on the project's website.
