Developer Only Discussion List

Howdy all!

We are a week and 1/2 away from the deadline for our 1.0 iso release and
I wanted to note a few things that I would like to coordinate with you
all:

1) Sorcery v1.8 will be released (stable version of sorcery) sometime
this friday, awaiting some testing on the xinetd responses.

2) Need to make a press release that hits more than our usual audience,
please mail me the possible addresses or make it known that you can get
an announcement into a certain site/list. If you can get it there, just
grab a cut and past from the sm-announce list when it hits and spread
whereever you deem necessary.

3) I am assuming that the iso, grimoire and sorcery are all on track as
I have head nothing to the contrary. If this is not so, please let me
know?

4) Suggestions for the release announcement text are welcome, or should
I just repeat the same style as previously.  I was thinking of posting
something of a short story about "Wandering down into the Source Mage
valley you encouter a sign on a tree stating 'Source Mage GNU/Linux v1.0
released today' and wonder what magical place this is....' and so on...
thoughts?

Hope you are all ready for the coming weeks and don't forget that we
have a post 1.0 admin meeting scheduled for 7 March.

Good luck all!
