Hi Keith,

It should show the changes I made (in a browser).

$ host repo.or.cz
repo.or.cz has address 62.24.64.27

All the hayber.us stuff has disappeared. The packages have moved to here:

http://code.google.com/u/khayber/

but I'm not sure where the feeds have gone. If someone can find them
and republish them at a new location, I'll update ROX-All. Otherwise,
I'll remove them.

Stephen? The libglitz dependency could be removed by recompiling
ROX-CLib. Removing the support for multiple platform in one ROX-CLib
would make things simpler, since the .so files would be in a fixed
location and we wouldn't need to run a script to find them.

Fixed in the GIT version.

Don't know about that one :-/
