Description Daniel Gerzo 2005-04-12 06:50:20 UTC
IMHO it's important to inform people about RC releases on the web page, since no everybody is described to the list. It is also important because of news servers like osnews an kerneltrap. We need to publish info about these releases, since we need testers so we can identify some new bugs and release a hell good release :-)

Fix: apply this diff:
