Changes to the NetBSD Packages Collection in July 2000
======================================================

We've had a busy month in pkgsrc-land: on the infrastructure side,
the definitions to mirror sources and binaries on CDROMs and ftp
servers have been reorganised to make them more useful, and Hubert
has also committed the changes to activate his bulk-build work.

Packages which should be updated this month for security reasons: 
navigator/communicator and wu-ftpd.

Notable additions include: antiword, aumix, easytag, gnomeicu,
gprolog, gtm, Gaelic ispell language support (who said we weren't esoteric?),
jakarta-ant, kxicq, lesstif-1.2, Adrian Sun's netatalk, netbsd-doc,
oaf, various Perl5 utilities, pks, priv, pstoedit, rio500, rp-pppoe, rpc2,
rvm, sawfish, urlview, and xpat2.

Notable updates include:  balsa, bind9, cdrecord,
communicator/navigator, delegate, ee, enlightenment, ethereal, exim,
fetchmail{,conf}, freetype, gcombust, gdk-pixbug, gimp-current, gnome,
gnupg, gnut, gqmpeg, guile, icewm, lame, lesstif, libxml, links, lsof,
mg2a, mutt, nessus has been overhauled (thanks to Thorsten and
Hubert), netpbm, nocol, openssh, ORBit, various Perl5 modules,
perl-current, pkg_install and pkgdiff, plotutils, png, pngcrush,
procmail, pth, PTL, racoon (4 times - thanks Itojun), ruby, sendmail,
tgif, thttpd, uae, wmthemes, wu-ftpd, xmame and xscreensaver.  Please
note also that Johnny Lam made major changes to the Ghostscript
packages (thanks, Johnny).

The Package of The Month award goes to cervisia, a visual front-end
for cvs, which Hubert and others have found very useful.  Be warned
that it does need kde installed.  Personally, I have a soft spot for
tkcvs for these things - others tell me that soft spot is between my
ears.

Enjoy the packages,
Alistair
