Those interested in Wakanda may now begin to fully test the platform, as this beta is feature frozen and close to what will be the production version, slated for release in early 2012. Developers are invited to begin creating projects and reporting any problems or concerns to the Wakanda team to ensure a high-quality product upon its official release.

The Wakanda public beta can be downloaded here.

Those evaluating Wakanda can also find full documentation, and those who want to dive fully into the project can find nightly builds reflecting future and ongoing development in Wakanda's development branch. 

For a brief overview, a recent blog post covers highlights of the beta, and a full feature list is also available. And if you still need some convincing to give it a try, we've compiled the Top Ten Reasons to use Wakanda.
