Exim conference, April 2008

Subject: Exim conference 2008 -- Preliminary Announcement and Call for Papers

A few months back, an Exim / e-mail conference was proposed.
but it didn't go ahead because not enough people were interested.

At the recent Exim course given by Philip Hazel in Cambridge we asked
again, and there's been a lot more interest (partly because timing is
better, partly because Philip's course won't be run anymore) so the
Conference will go ahead now in 2008.

	Regards,
	Niall

ps: apologies to those who receive both postings

Exim 4.68 Released


I have just put Exim release 4.68 on the primary ftp site:

  ftp://ftp.csx.cam.ac.uk/pub/software/email/exim/exim4/exim-4.68.tar.gz
  ftp://ftp.csx.cam.ac.uk/pub/software/email/exim/exim4/exim-4.68.tar.bz2

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This release contains a number of new features, as well as some bug fixes. The
documentation has been updated. The PostScript/PDF documentation has again been
made by a new process. Instead of using xmlto/fop (as was done up to 4.66),
PostScript is generated directly from the XML by a program called SDoP that I
have been quietly writing for the last couple of years. It is now publicly
released, and it can do a better (and 60 times faster) job on the Exim manual
than xmlto/fop. In particular, change bars are back, as are font changes in the
indexes, and there are fewer typographic inelegancies.

As usual, all changes are in the doc/ChangeLog file. See also the
README.UPDATING file for changes that might impact on some installations.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The primary ftp server is in Cambridge, England. There is a list of mirrors in:

  ftp://ftp.csx.cam.ac.uk/pub/software/email/exim/Mirrors

The distribution files are signed with Philip Hazel's GPG key, which is
available on the ftp site and on a number of keyservers. The signature files
are in the same directory as the tarbundles. The MD5 hash codes for the
distribution files are:
