> Hi,

> I've made the 1.0.7-rc1 release available for download at:
> 
> ftp://ftp.kaffe.org/pub/kaffe/testing/v1.0.x/kaffe-1.0.7-rc1.tar.gz
> http://www.kaffe.org/ftp/pub/kaffe/testing/v1.0.x/kaffe-1.0.7-rc1.tar.gz
> 
> Please download it, compile it, and try it out.  This is a test release
> of what will be 1.0.7.
> 
> I'd like to get 1.0.7 final out quickly, since it's been 2 years since a
> production release of Kaffe has been made.  The only changes between
> this version and the final version will be small bugfixes that fix major
> bugs (eg. compile bugs, security bugs), and some additional release
> documentation (eg. improved bug listing, list of working/broken ports).
> 
> In the final release announcement, I'd like to list the platforms on
> which the release has been tested, and the results of the testing (good
> or bad).  Please send any test reports to kaffe@kaffe.org.
> 
> Here is "What's New" in 1.0.7-rc1:
> 
> This release is dedicated to the memory of Edouard G. Parmelan, one of
> the most active Kaffe developers, a member of the core team, and one of
> the driving forces behind the project.
