This release addresses all the installation problems of which I am aware, though there may be a few pathological problems lurking somewhere. If they are brought to my attention through the Bug Tracking System I will try to fix them. There are likely still some small problems with XF86Setup, but if you already have a valid /etc/X11/XF86Config file corresponding to your preferred server, it should work. Those wishing to help out are invited to take their X packages off of hold now. This release is STILL not cleared for "production" environments, though, I don't feel it has been tested enough. ("Production" environments should be using hamm anyway.) Anyway, there is light at the end of the tunnel now. -- G.
