Hi!

Here's the latest weekly news edition!

=====================================================================

Hi all,

Plenty of updates below in the list, amongst a few advisories. Both Mysql 
and CVS reported these, so make sure you patch those! Browse the full list
to see the rest of the updates.

Two major activities have bben going on this week. I have stress tested
the core code and made sure clean installs build OK. Most notably, both
lunar fix and lunar rebuild had bugs that prevented them from working.
These issues have been fixed now and I have succesfully executed both
full fixes and rebuilds on clean installs. That said I am merely
pondering what else really needs to be done before I merge all of theedge
into lunar soon.

Next to that is the website. The CVS browser is now almost finished and
allows revisions to be viewed, and developers can even see some more stuff.
All URLs now refer to 'lunar-linux.org'. Note www. and dbguin. are no
longer used (they still work but "redirect" you to lunar-linux.org), and
people should update their bookmarks. Especially people should
consider checking their LRESORT_URL in their lunar settings.
