Germany's big IT news portals have been very willing to announce releases and even cover them with a little story. If they don't report the release by themselves they have always been open to use "press releases" as a base for their news, and that includes open source projects. There's no point in informing them prematurely though, but if needed/wanted I can take care of getting them informed on the day/night of the release. But I still think the release should be postponed until the release day of duke nukem forever :P ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Special Offer-- Download ArcSight Logger for FREE (a $49 USD value)!
