I added the 64bit windows warning and added the Windows targets of last release:

The Lazarus team is glad to announce the release of Lazarus 1.2.

This release was built with fpc 2.6.2.

Here is the list of changes for Lazarus and Free Pascal: http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Lazarus_1.2.0_release_notes

On Windows the installer now allows 2 independent installations. http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Multiple_Lazarus#Installation_of_multiple_Lazarus

The release is available for download on SourceForge: http://sourceforge.net/projects/lazarus/files/

Choose your CPU, OS, distro and then the "Lazarus 1.2" directory. Windows x64 users: please use the 32 bit installer if possible. See http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Windows_Programming_Tips#FPC_2.6.x.2FLazarus_warning_.28Missing_support_for_SEH.29 for more details.

Minimum requirements:
Windows: 98, 2k, XP, Vista, 7, 32 or 64bit
FreeBSD/Linux: gtk 2.8 or qt4.5, 32 or 64bit
Mac OS X: 10.5 for Intel cpus, 10.4 for PowerPC, LCL only 32bit, non LCL apps can be 64bit

The svn tag is

For people who are blocked by SF, the Lazarus releases from SourceForge are mirrored at:
ftp://freepascal.dfmk.hu/pub/lazarus/releases/
and later at (after some time for synchronization) http://michael-ep3.physik.uni-halle.de/Lazarus/releases/ and

Oops. This mail should have gone to the devel list. But maybe it is better to have some more eyes to check before it is sent to the world. :)

Replying on this list, too ;)
The win "minimum requirements" are a bit strange in that it is a list of all versions since XP (except Windows Server 2003, 2008, 2012, and Windows 8!?!?).
Perhaps just leave the 98... when people see that they'll probably start to complain their system isn't mentioned if they hadn't read "minimum requirements" correctly, but well...

Thanks a lot,
Reinier

Ah, I remember we had this discussion already.
I replaced it with "98" as minimum.
