[rest of changelog snipped] Ah, I was pretty sure that were were in quite the strict freeze as well, which is why I hadn't uploaded this before yesterday - I had already fixed all of these non-RC bugs after freeze but didn't want to upload them before release to avoid confusion. Your message gave me hope that I could get these fixes into sarge and I got a little trigger-happy I guess. Feel free to make the t-p-u upload as soon as you get this message, as it will be much less hassle for you to upload it than me at this point. -- Michael Janssen --- Jamuraa --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- [EMAIL PROTECTED]
