[CLUG] Mandrake 8.1 beta 2 is out

[Ruairí Newman]

Well in that case, anybody who wants Mandrake 8.1 beta 1 OR 2 on Saturday, in
Cork, let me know.  Terms as in previous mail.  I'm off to download Beta 2.
Did I mention I have an E1 at my disposal?  ;)

Oleg, the point of betas is to test the software so that HOPEFULLY the final
release is bug-free, or as close as possible.

Regards,

Ruairi
