Introduction:

The Kunena team is thrilled to announce the RC2 release of Kunena 5.2, a native Joomla extension for Joomla 3.9. This is a development release and should be only be used for testing; this version is not recommended for live websites at this stage.

The purpose of this release is to encourage testing by downloading, installing and identifying any problems or shortcomings that people may discover. K 5.2.0 RC2 is stable and we are aware that people will discover defects. We encourage you to use the forum to report defects, as soon as they are discovered, so that the development team can work through the problems before the release of K 5.2 as a stable product. Reporting defects does not mean that the problems can or will be fixed. The Kunena team is looking forward to hearing your feedback on how well we have achieved our design goals.

You need Joomla 3.9 to run Kunena 5.2, the minimal requirement for Php has been increased to 7.0.4.

The beta 6 of Joomla! 4 (or maybe the RC1) is it will be exist is not yet released : github.com/joomla/joomla-cms/releases

Kunena 6.0 will work on Joomla! 4, when we are released the final version of K5.2 and the updated blue eagle template to integrate changes form K5.2, we will focus more on K6.0.
