Hats off to the Developers

[Michael A. Peters]

Other than media check not working - FC4T2 so far has been very usable,
at least for me.

Maybe it's just me, but this is the first time since RH8 that Evolution
has felt usable for me - and has not crashed at all in 24 hours of use -
and it definitely feels a lot faster (connecting to imap server).

This is really important to me because evolution seems to be the only
gui imap client I can find on Linux (or windows) that properly handles
using multiple smtp servers - picking the right one automatically based
upon the From field.

I'm sure there are still issues that need to be resolved, and probably
some that effect me (the way that I use to make special spanish
characters without having to use international deadkeys - ctrl-alt
hexcode - no longer works but does weird stuff, like hiding all windows
etc.) but I can't wait for the June date to come around so I can start
using this on my main box. It really feels good, fonts are yet again
improved - and it at least feels faster than FC3, which is nice as I
_really_ need to buy more ram.

Hopefully my unsupported way of doing special Spanish characters can
either be fixed, or another way found - I really hate dead keys,
especially when doing lots of things at once, but this test release
really feels good.

Thanks to all involved for the effort.
With the grub/lilo debate - I think sometimes we common users forget to
express when we are thankful for what the developers are doing, and I
think sometimes it needs to be heard. Special thanks to Seth for all the
work with yum and getting Extras to where it is today.

I'm not subscribed from the from address, but in case not - sorry for
the cross post)
