Version 2.0.16 is a minor release of Yii 2.0 which contains more than a hundred enhancements and bug fixes including security fixes.

Yii 2.0 reached feature freeze more than a year ago, meaning that the 2.0 branch will only receive bug fixes. That was done in order to allow the Yii Team to focus on the upcoming Yii 3 rewrite. There's more on Yii 3 at the very end of this announcement.
