XEmacs XEmacs 21.5.17 "chayote" is released

goto announcement, summary, changes

To: xemacs-beta@xemacs.org
From: "Stephen J. Turnbull, XEmacs Beta Release Engineer" <stephen@xemacs.org>
Subject: XEmacs 21.5.17 "chayote" is released.
Organization: The XEmacs Project

*          XEmacs 21.5.17 "chayote" is released.
      "chayote" is the eighteenth in the OXYMORON series.

The main purpose of the "chayote" release is to provide a checkpoint
before upcoming major changes.  Bignum (infinite precision integer)
support and Xft (including antialiasing) support are expected to be
added in the near future.

Relative to XEmacs 21.5.16 "celeriac", "chayote" has many improvements
in module support from Jerry James, and improved package management
from Steve Youngs.  Steve Youngs also ported the "lazy" widget support
from GNU Emacs 21.3, and Jerry James synched frame and window support.
A number of annoying crashes in GTK, in X11 dialogs, and in the
bytecode interpreter were fixed, but several crashes remain.

* XEmacs 21.5.17 is "beta" software. 

The usual "no warranty" disclaimer (see etc/WARRANTY, sections 10 and
11) applies.  Furthermore, since the 21.5 series is in active
development, there is no promise that it will even build successfully
on your platform (unless you happen to have one similar to the release
engineer's and build a tagged beta).  If you want a semblance of
stability, you should use the stable 21.4 release series.

* Availability

Anonymous ftp:

		 ftp://ftp.xemacs.org/pub/xemacs/beta

See http://www.xemacs.org/Install/.  Beta releases only come in "full
kit" form, with sources and prebuilt Info and compiled Lisp.

If you already have a 21.5.16 source tree, a patchkit is available in
xemacs-21.5.16-21.5.17.patch.gz.  This does not update .elcs or .infos,
they will be rebuilt when you make XEmacs.  If you have an earlier
version, you can repeatedly apply patchkits.

Also, if you don't have the packages yet, see

        http://www.xemacs.org/Documentation/packageGuide.html.

Anonymous (pserver) CVS:

Anonymous CVS is available.  We are very grateful to the staff at our
host, SunSITE.dk, for a lot of help and quick reponse to all our
requests.

Take care that your Root is set correctly to

	 CVSROOT=:pserver:cvs@cvs.xemacs.org:/pack/xemacscvs

On platforms with a Bourne shell and find available, something like

      for r in `find . -name Root`; do echo $CVSROOT > $r; done

will convert your entire tree.

Tags are also the same; to update to release 21.5.17, use the release
tag "r21-5-17".  21.5 commits are to the trunk; to get the bleeding
edge, use the "-A" flag to cvs update to reset any sticky tags or dates.

For more details, see

             http://www.xemacs.org/Develop/cvsaccess.html
