+Yii PHP Framework Version 2
+===========================
 
-Thank you for choosing Yii - a high-performance component-based PHP framework.
+Thank you for choosing Yii 2 - a modern PHP framework designed for professional Web development.
 
-If you are looking for a production-ready PHP framework, please use
-[Yii v1.1](https://github.com/yiisoft/yii).
+Yii 2 is a complete rewrite of its previous version Yii 1.1 which is one of the most popular PHP frameworks.
+Yii 2 inherits the main spirit behind Yii for being simple, fast and highly extensible.
+Yii 2 requires PHP 5.4 and embraces best practices and protocols found in modern Web application development.
+
+
+**Yii 2 is not ready for production use yet.** We may make significant changes without prior notices.
+We expect to make the first stable release of Yii 2 in early 2014.
+
+If you mainly want to learn Yii with no real project development requirement, we highly recommend
+you start with Yii 2 as it will be our main focus for the next few years.
+
+If you have a real project with tight schedule, you should stick to [Yii 1.1](https://github.com/yiisoft/yii)
+which is the latest stable release of Yii.
