+
+After an extremely short release cycle, we're proud to present OpenLP 2.4.
+
+Some folks might be wondering why we're releasing a new version after such a short amount of time. Others might be
+looking at the new features, and wondering why there's almost nothing there. The reality is that we were forced to
+upgrade some of the libraries we use sooner than we had anticipated.
+
+Some of the Linux distributions removed one of the components of the |GUI| library we are using (Qt), and in order to
+continue using that component we had to upgrade the |GUI| library. When the component was removed from those Linux
+distributions, OpenLP was also removed. So in order to make sure OpenLP is in the next version of Ubuntu, we had to
+move fast.
+
+Known issues
+------------
+Moving so quickly also meant that some of the issues we discovered while upgrading to the latest Qt version could not
+be solved within the limited timeframe. These issues are only seen on Windows and Mac OS X and relate to the use of
+transparent themes, and cause the presentation display not to update correctly. We have also spotted some issues with
+the webkit player, which is used for live backgrounds, and again is only seen on Windows and Mac OS X. If you need to
+use these features, we recommend skipping OpenLP 2.4 and waiting for OpenLP 2.6.
+
+As with any upgrade, make sure you backup your data before upgrading to OpenLP 2.4. This way you can always revert to
+the previous version of OpenLP without losing your data should you be negatively affected by these issues. You can
+follow the instructions in our manual on `how to backup your data`_.
