Subject:	ANNOUNCE: DJGPP 2.05 release candidate
Reply-To:	djgpp AT delorie DOT com

This is announcement of release candidate of DJGPP 2.05

It has numerous changes since previous DJGPP 2.04 beta 1 release in 2003.
(http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/mail-archives/browse.cgi?p=djgpp-announce/2003/12/06/22:18:05)
Unfortunately DJGPP v2.04 was never released and old beta version slowly
became almost unusable together with other newer DJGPP packages.

More information about changes in DJGPP 2.05 is available at

     http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/doc/kb/

both in sections about changes in 2.04 and 2.05. The same information is also
available in file info/kb.inf in djdev205.zip

It is expected to become actual release unless critcal bugs will be found.

Note that one should use djgpp v2.05 RC with other binary packages from
ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta and NOT (ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current).

The release candidate versiona is not available via the Zip Picker interface.
You can download it from here:

     ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2

Additionally RPM packages (source and binary packages for i686 and x86_64) are
available from

     ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/rpms

Binary RPM packages are built in such way that they are expected to install and
work on any recent enough RPM based Linux distribution (for example RHEL5 and newer
should be OK, RHEL4 perhaps not)

Please see the README file for instructions on how to install the beta:

     ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2/readme.1st

You can also download DJGPP 2.05 release candidate 1 from DJGPP mirror sites:

Thanks for all who have contributed to development of DJGPP
