But the problems other people have when compiling slrn from CVS will disappear 
if there's a .pl2 or 1.0-rc1 release, preferably with your charset patch 
included.

The only reason non-developers like me are using CVS code is that there are 
fixes available in CVS for .pl1 problems.

Meanwhile, I've been studying the docs. There are a few errors in manual.txt 
and $SLRNHELP/help.txt that need to be fixed; and there are also errors in 
the coresponding pages at www.slrn.org. I hope to have at least a list of 
errors, or (better still) a patch for the SGML source ready within a few 
days.

For instance, the instructions for resizing the article window with ^ and 
Ctrl-^ seem to be the wrong way round.


If Thomas (Schultz, not Wiegner) isn't too busy, I'd really like to see a .pl2 
release soon... and maybe a 1.0 before the end of 2007?
