OK, there is new version released at berlios in the files section: http://prdownload.berlios.de/peless/peless-1.125.tar.bz2 It 1) Fixes the copyright notice problem. 2) fixes some problems with fedora spec files. You don't care about this. 3) uses ax_boost_base.m4 instead of my homebrew system to manage boost ax_boost_base.m4 is documented here: http://autoconf-archive.cryp.to/ax_boost_base.html http://www.randspringer.de/boost/ This will require that the rules file be changed.

Within one week I plan to have another release that will support translation. It will not have any new translations, but it will publish a .pot file so that people can translate peless. I will have to decide how to handle some parameterized translation strings and change some c++. I need to decide if peless should use the compose library: http://people.iola.dk/olau/compose/ or boost::format.
