                ----------------------------------------
                 leafnode 1.10.3.rel has been released.
                ----------------------------------------
                    http://leafnode.sourceforge.net/

Leafnode 1.10.3.rel fixes two LIST ACTIVE issues, one is that LIST
ACTIVE with a single group name (not a pattern) didn't refresh
subscriptions, the other is that LIST ACTIVE didn't offer the pseudo
article. These fixes improve compatibility with the venerable pre-KDE
"knews" news reader.

A binary RPM for Linux with glibc 2.2 and i486 or compatible processors
is provided. It also requires a package providing libpcre.so.0 and xinetd.

This version is or will become available in .tar.bz2 format from these sites:

o SourceForge -- Source .tar.bz2 and i486 Linux RPM
   http://sourceforge.net/projects/leafnode/
   http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=57767&release_id=256774
   rsync://osdn.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/leafnode/

o Dortmund University -- Source .tar.bz2, .tar.gz, upgrade patch, i486 Linux RPM
   http://home.pages.de/~mandree/leafnode/
   rsync://www.dt.e-technik.uni-dortmund.de/leafnode-1/

o IBiblio/MetaLab (will take some days to pick up) -- has FTP sites
   http://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/MIRRORS.html
   Check the system/news/transport directory

Not all sites carry all files.

Below are file checksums and the NEWS file excerpt, with changes since
the previous release.  The full ChangeLog ships with the tarballs and
can be viewed at http://home.pages.de/~mandree/leafnode/ChangeLog.txt

Have fun,
Matthias Andree, Leafnode maintainer

NEWS since previous release:
>-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
* 1.10.3, 2004-07-28

### BUGFIX
- - LIST and LIST ACTIVE reported "empty group" for pseudo groups, rather than
  a group with one article. Reported by Brian Sammon.

### COMPATIBILITY
- - Also refresh newsgroup subscription if the newsreader uses LIST ACTIVE
  news.group (when news.group is not a pattern). Suggested by Brian Sammon.
