Not to mention wiki. No need to redo the discussion in a release thread please.

Congratulations!
Now first problems, trying to debug IDE I have found that it is not possible - IDE starts from RunError 16972576, 16971672(2),16972000(3), 16972208, .... and so on.
I used fpcupdeluxe to reinstall Lazarus at previous location of version 2.3.0 / 3.99.
Edited:
Thanks to JuhaManninen first problem solved, it needed option Clean UP + Build all. It was enough.

In a major.minor.release numbering scheme there was no clear rule when to increase the major number and when the minor number. A whole new release always has some big improvements. For example the jump to 2.0.0 was rather arbitrary, and 2.2.0 could have been 3.0.0 as well.
Now the major number always increases when a new release if forked from development branch. The minor number is for bug fix releases.

Many files have changed places. Do a clean install. Fpcupdeluxe is not needed to install Lazarus if you already have FPC installed. Just do git clone and make to build directly from revision control. An installation package for RC1 is also provided.
Here debugging works very well. Martin's FpDebug debugger is now in a good shape.
