We have released the first beta version of Doctrine 2.4. Some of the changes are listed in this talk by Alexander and me from Symfony Live Berlin last year.

You can find a list of changes on Jira.

You can install the release with Composer:

{
    "require": {
        "doctrine/orm": "2.4.0-beta1",
        "doctrine/dbal": "2.4.0-beta1",
        "doctrine/common": "2.4.0-rc1"
    }
}

Please test this release with your existing applications to allow us to find BC breaks and remove them before the final release. The plan is to release the final version in the next 4-6 weeks.

In these next weeks we will work to incorporate all changes in the documentation.
