we're in the process of cutting it now (and burning CD's :-)
we got .deb and .rpm and stock .tar.gz in the distribution,
but unfortunately we didn't get to the .slp -- a combination
of our chaos, a website being down, and us running out of time.
we will have a .slp (as well as a SunOS pkg) in the next tarball
(and in CVS as soon as Shaw gets back from the Linux show :-)

i haven't given that a lot of thought yet.... the last few weeks
have been sort of chaotic trying to get 0.7.0 binary releases,
installers, build system, etc.
suggestions, anyone ??
would it be reasonable to email the list (or a special for-translators list)
whenever someone changes/adds an english string and ask for new text
in each of the other languages ?? the string tables don't change very
often (for example, when a new dialog gets added) and the amount of text
isn't that great, so it shouldn't be too much of a burden....
thoughts/suggestions/flames ??
