2.0.0b2

Notes

This pre-release includes several performance improvements that address the slow response times when running large wikis.

If you are running Python 3.12.+ and get a traceback with:

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pkg_resources'

then you must install setuptools manually:

pip install setuptools
