[Draft, work in progress]

Disclaimer.

Please be reminded that what we call "AgriDrupal demo package" is not a tool that we officially distribute or maintain: it is only a demo Drupal setup packaged with the features that we find useful for agricultural information management.

The versions available for download come with no guarantee, are not maintained and are to be considered test versions for circulation in the AgriDrupal community and for testign and adoption only by users who know Drupal and can use and customize AgriDrupal with no assistance.

Deadlines are only indicative, they are only there to give an idea of our plans.

To make sure you download the current latest version of the AgriDrupal demo package, download it from the latest version folder here: http://www.agridrupal.org/downloads/AgriDrupal/
