Hello list readers,

today (20080222) there is a new release finished: 1.99.2.1.

This is a release in the new 1.99.x line, which is the way
to go for gpm2.

The main difference between 1.20.3pre3 and 1.99.2.1 is the splitoff
of many of the big source files.

It should mainly be used to verify that there are no changes that break
gpm. If you want to help verifying it, do:

- download the tar:
   wget http://unix.schottelius.org/gpm/archives/gpm-1.99.2.1.tar.bz2
- download the checksum:
   wget http://unix.schottelius.org/gpm/archives/gpm-1.99.2.1.tar.bz2.sha512sum
- verify checksum:
   sha512sum -c gpm-1.99.2.1.tar.bz2.sha512sum
- build via ./build-from-git.sh
- cd src
- ./gpm <with your usual arguments>
- send results and your command line to this list

As soon as some people report success I will merge the 1.99.2.1 stuff
back into the 1.20.1-bugfix branch, so new patches are against small
files.

You can read more about the new version scheme in README.versions in
the top level directory.

Sincerly

Nico
