I have just done a full release of all the Arusha
Project stuff I could get my hands on (teams: ARK, arksf1,
glasli1, sample1, sidai, simple1, verilab2).  The release
notes I sent to freshmeat are something like those below :-)
Wander to http://sourceforge.net/projects/ark for the bits.
I would describe the last six months' work as steady but
undramatic development; the 'core' hasn't changed at all.

In case you've forgotten: the Arusha Project (ARK) provides
a framework for collaborative system administration of
multi-platform Unix sites with many dozens of machines.

If any of you need help exploring or thinking about Arusha
Project stuff, or have "it would be great if..." ideas,
please speak up or get in touch.

== release notes =======================================

Our LISA 2001 paper is now available.  'Tooldoc' supports
easy location of non-standard documentation. 'Toolenv'
supports careful intermingling of environment variables when
tool versions are being controlled.  Password distribution
tools now work with shadow files.  A new `device' thing
(anything except a host) has been introduced.  HP-UX11
support refreshed.  Newly supported packages include: gaim,
SML-NJ, Jakarta XML/Java tools (initial support), and GNOME
2 tools (ditto).  Plus many other package updates, minor
improvements and a few bug fixes.
