[389-announce] Announcing 389 Directory Server 1.2.5 Release Candidate 4

[Rich Megginson]

The 389 team is pleased to announce the availability of Release
Candidate 4 of version 1.2.5.

NOTE: Packages for Enterprise Linux are available from EPEL. We will no
longer have a separate yum repo for these packagse.

We need your help!  Please help us test this software.  It is a Release
Candidate, so it is fairly stable at this point.  We have worked hard to
make sure upgrades from previous releases are as smooth as possible, and
we would really appreciate feedback about upgrades.  The Fedora system
strongly encourages packages to be in Testing until verified and pushed
to Stable.  If we don't get any feedback while the packages are in
Testing, the packages will remain in limbo, or get pushed to Stable.

The more testing we get, the faster we can release these packages to Stable.

The packages that need testing are:
* 389-ds-base-1.2.5.rc4

* Release Notes - http://port389.org/wiki/Release_Notes
* Install_Guide - http://port389.org/wiki/Install_Guide
* Download - http://port389.org/wiki/Download

=== New features ===

=== Bugs Fixed ===

fixed is found at the link below.  Note that bugs marked as MODIFIED
