FYI:

With the cvs being locked, I will not be releasing RC1 this weekend.  There
are also a couple of code items I'm looking at.

Instead, I'm aiming for RC1 on the 10th (Friday).

Target for 3.1 remains the 18th.

OK, gang, it's time to move 3.1 out the door.

Here's the plan.

I will be rolling the release # to 3.0.90 today.  From now on, only bug
fixes and FAQ updates!!


I will release 3.1rc1 this coming weekend, with plans for 3.1 to be released
on the 18th of December.  So TEST NOW...


Luca and I will be making RC1 binary packages available based on the most
commonly used OS/Releases in the version.xml logs.

These are:

  Linux  16679 unique users or 70.5%
  Windows 4828 unique users, 20.4%
  FreeBSD 1826 unique users, 7.7% (almost evenly split between 4.x and 5.x)


Within Linux, the break down is:

RedHat 9      2657 11.2%
Debian 3.1    1988  8.4%
Fedora 2      1950  8.2%
SuSE (all)    1944  8.2%
Gentoo 1.4.16 1397  5.9%
Fedora 1      1133  4.8%
Debian        1074  4.5%  (assumed to be Debian 3)
Redhat 8       575  2.4%
Redhat 7.3     537  2.3%

(note that Gentoo is underrepresented by a couple of hundred users because
there are a lot of trivial point releases counted separately - but it's
still in 5th place).


Being purely arbitrary and setting a 5% cutoff, that means

Binary packages for

   Windows
   RedHat 9
   Debian 3.1
   Fedora 2
   SuSE 9.2

Portage for 
   Gentoo

Ports for
   FreeBSD

Fedora 1 and 3 people should be able to use a Fedora 2 package, and RH8/7.3
people should be able to use the RH9 package - you'll just have to run the
rebuild cycle - that is:

$ rpmbuild --rebuild SOURCEPKG
(or rpmbuild --recompile SOURCEPKG)


(If people want to take the release files from the cvs and create additional
binary packages, I'll be happy to post them - contact me off list for
instructions)
