ISPConfig 3.2 is the next generation of our hosting control panel. Today we publish the
third beta version (pre-release) of ISPConfig 3.2 for testing. We do not recommend updating
production systems to the beta version.
We had originally planned to release the final version on October 1st. The final version is now planned for October 12th.
