Philipp Kern: Stable Point Release: Etch 4.0r4 (aka etchnhalf)
Another point release for Etch has been done; now it's the time for the CD
team to roll out new images after the next mirror pulse. The official
announcements (prepared by Alexander Reichle-Schmehl, thanks!) will follow
shortly afterwards. FTP master of the day was Joerg Jaspert, who
did his first point release since Woody, as he told us on IRC. We
appreciate your work and you spending your time that shortly before
going to Argentina.
This point release includes the etchnhalf update introducing a new kernel
image (based on 2.6.24) and some driver updates. Additionally the
infamous openssl hole will be fixed for good, even for new installs.
Again I want to present you a list of people who contributed to this
release. It cannot be complete as I got the information out of the
Changed-by fields of the uploads.
