OpenMRS version 1.6 is officially released. We recommend that all users upgrade to this version. You may download it here.

See the release notes for a complete list of changes, but three to highlight are:

• Patients are allowed to be Users
• Logic has been removed from the OpenMRS core and is now a required core module
• You need Java 1.6+
