First, Atari-source.org has changed to Drupal which has a number of important benefits in terms of operation of a CMS. Basically, allowing great flexibility. Anyway, the move to Drupal is part of a complete restructuring of Atari-source.org. The restructuring being that Atari-source.org will no longer be a general news site but will focus on real content like Articles, Reviews, guides, etc and will also centralize around mine and perhaps others projects. Of note to list members right now, is the new feature of my RPM staging area. This is going to have RPM packages that I have built that are not yet uploaded to the Sparemint server but seem to be ok. Other users can test them out and kind of give me a thumbs up or thumbs down. There's quite a few packages that while I'm not "sure" they are ready for primetime, other users might find them interesting, so I thought this was a good feature. In addition, there's also a prettier interface for accessing CVS builds of freemint/xaaes, mintlib and soon windom CVS snapshot builds as well. If anybody else would like their CVS accessible software to be added to my snapshot build list, please let me know. It's not on a set schedule yet, but it will be using an aranym box that hides in the corner ;) Thanks for listening, Mark
