If HPA doesn't do it first, I'll do it once I have access. --Gene

Now we just need to solve all regressions, add new features..., and achieve world peace... piece of cake :D.> > I have also removed the git.kernel.org repository.Hmm. If I may... I would had waited at least until the next pre-release or the next release, while checking that repo.or.cz actually "works" *for The Syslinux Project* and its developers and contributors. I don't know the reasons for removing it; it was only updated once in a while (for some important pre-release or for a release), but it is still being tracked down / monitored / followed by some important distributions. In a way, it was not only the official git repository but also a kind of "Syslinux announcements" mailing list. Additionally, many useful links out there (including from distros and the Syslinux Mailing List) point to git.kernel.org. I wonder whether it would be possible to leave it as secondary / backup / unofficial repository (for release only, or not updated). Distributions might pay attention to official releases (most of them don't follow the Syslinux Mailing List), so adding a comment about this change in the next release announcement, while still updating git.kernel.org at release time (at least once more) would had been helpful to those tracking it. Let's hope that users / distros are at least (also) tracking / monitoring the release directory ("/pub/linux/utils/boot/syslinux/") in kernel.org, as I am guessing this will still be used for official release archives. Thank you and Best Regards, Ady.
