crowd 7.x-2.0-rc1

This is the first release candidate for the 7.x-2.x branch. It includes primarily bug-fixes.

Important: Some class names have been changed since the last release. Many efforts have been made to ensure backwards compatibility with existing APIs but if you are using the APIs in any custom code it's highly recommended that you reference the related change record for more details.

Important: If you are using the sandbox Crowd Extended Rest Methods module you must disable it, and any dependencies, BEFORE upgrading this module. After this module is upgraded, and update.php is run, you should be able to re-enable the Crowd Extended Rest Methods module without any problems. You are also encouraged to discontinue use of the Crowd Extended Rest Methods module by updating your code to leverage the new functionality that has been added natively to this module. Again see the related change record for more info.
