Its been almost 4 weeks since Beta4, and alot of work, involving alot of
bug fixes, and documentation improvements, to the source tree, we have

As with all releases, the success of this release falls in the your hands
... to go from Beta -> Release, we need as many people out there to put it
through her paces as possible, on as many platforms as possible.  We urge
anyone, and everyone, to download a copy and run her through her
regression tests, and report any/all problems, and bugs, to

The more bugs we can find, and eliminate, during Beta, the more successful

Once more, on behalf of all of the developers, Happy Bug Hunting ...

Hi all,

Someone's already approved this, so it's good to go.

The link addresses have now been tweaked to be clickable links too.
