    I am pleased to announce the availability of BLCR 0.8.0_beta1 from
    http://mantis.lbl.gov/blcr-dist/
    Both source tarball and SRPM are available.  The filenames and MD5
    checksums are:
         057477d9391a74dee77b1d6814c085d8  blcr-0.8.0_b1-1.src.rpm
         48b25604274bd90e92b872aed07e05f9  blcr-0.8.0_b1.tar.gz
    
    Relative to the eventual 0.8.0 release, this Beta is lacking a few minor
    features and the HTML documentation may need additional updates.
    Based on our in-house testing, this release is considered stable (though
    ARM, PPC and Xen platforms are still designated as EXPERIMENTAL due to
    our inability to test them as well as i386 and x86_64).
    
    If you have reported a bug recently, especially if you've been told to
    expect a fix in 0.8.0, please try out this Beta release and let us know
    if your problem is fixed and especially if it is not.
    
    There will be at least one more Beta release prior to the full 0.8.0, to
    include the minor features still not completed and to update the HTML
    docs as needed.
    
    -Paul
    
    PS
    You are receiving this either because you are on the checkpoint_at_lbl_dot_gov
    list, because you've recently sent email to the list (or me directly)
    asking about BLCR status, or because our Bugzilla shows your interests
    in a bug fixed in this beta.
