Welcome to the first beta for 2.9.0. See the release notes on phpmyadmin.net for the list of improvements.

Sorry, 2.8.2.3 broke the setup script; fixed in 2.8.2.4.

Two fixes:

- cookie login on IIS with IE6
- switching from scripts/setup.php to the main script in case of register_globals enabled

This release fixes another case where the newly created configuration file was not used. See our bug tracker for the description of the problem.
