The Joomla! Project is pleased to announce the immediate availability of Joomla! 1.6.6. This is a security release and is intended only for those users who are unable to use version 1.7.0.

Version 1.6 will reach end of life on 19 August 2011. All users of version 1.6 should update to version 1.7.0 before that time. The update process to version 1.7 is very simple, and complete instructions are available here.
