We still have quite a few patches pending in samba-bugs. If you have sent a patch to samba-bugs and are waiting for it to be integrated then you might like to know about two things that make life easier for you and for us. The first is the samba-cvs list. This is a standard listproc list (just like this one) that automatically receives all the cvs commit messages. Be warned that this list is quite busy (96 messages in the last 5 days). You can also see an archive of it at http://samba.anu.edu.au/listproc. The second is the anonymous cvs service I mentioned last week. If you have made your own local changes to Samba then using anon cvs has many advantages: 1) you don't need to go through the rigmarole of downloading new .tar.gz files via ftp after each release. Just use "cvs update". 2) "cvs update" will automatically merge in new code without removing your local changes. This can save you a lot of time. 3) You can easily generate new diff files againt the latest release by running "cvs diff -u". This will help us to integrate your changes. See http://samba.anu.edu.au/cvs.html for details. Cheers, Andrew
