The downloads and homepage clear show OpenCV 3.0 Beta as being available for download for iOS. However, these links seem to be downloading the opencv2.framework. I'm guessing this is the old OpenCV 2 framework and not the correct version 3 beta. Where might I be able to find the version 3 beta for iOS? Or is this the correct one and there is some other reason for calling the version 3 framework opencv2? Thanks!

This is the 3.0 Beta framework. You can tell for sure if you look in the Headers folder. Inside, you should see the imgcodecs folder containing ios.h which is new in 3.0.

To me, it would make a lot of sense to rename the libraries to opencv3. Since 3.0 breaks source code compatibility with 2.x anyway (which is a good thing, IMO), the most logical thing would be to change the file names to opencv3. This would make it easier to have 2.x and 3.0 installed concurrently for different projects.
