* XEmacs 21.4.22 "Instant Classic" is released. "Instant Classic" is the Twentieth-Second in the OXYMORON series. The latest stable release of XEmacs, XEmacs 21.4.22 - "Instant Classic", is now available from xemacs.org and its mirrors. * Availability Anonymous ftp: ftp://ftp.xemacs.org/pub/xemacs/xemacs-21.4 See http://www.xemacs.org/Install/. As of 21.4.18, only a source tarball has been supplied. There was virtually no use of the info and elc tarballs, so xemacs-21.4.22.tar.gz and xemacs-21.4.22.tar.bz2 are the only tarballs supplied. If you already have a 21.4.21 source tree, a patchkit is available in xemacs-21.4.21-21.4.22.patch.gz. This does not update .elcs or .infos, they will be rebuilt when you make XEmacs. If you have an earlier version, you can repeatedly apply patchkits. The tarballs and patches are signed with my GPG key, available from most public keyservers and also from ftp://ftp.xemacs.org/pub/xemacs/pgp-keys/vin_shelton.asc Here are the MD5 check sums of each of the files related to the XEmacs 21.4.22 release: 47be4ace986a7c025017e75353fb33fe xemacs-21.4.21-21.4.22.patch.gz c5effbfaf6f2d2d2b5a7ca8df845262d xemacs-21.4.21-21.4.22.patch.gz.asc 060bf7565cb3233c6e7071354e9a23a4 xemacs-21.4.22.tar.bz2 68c0c8dc349b47b5394b872fb1657790 xemacs-21.4.22.tar.bz2.asc b0b762407316d6de170db69aba7a37cf xemacs-21.4.22.tar.gz d0ee18c12f60a11f012c47b79209caf9 xemacs-21.4.22.tar.gz.asc Also, if you don't have the packages yet, see http://www.xemacs.org/Documentation/packageGuide.html. Anonymous (pserver) CVS: Anonymous CVS is available. We are very grateful to the staff at our host, SunSITE.dk, for a lot of help and quick reponse to all our requests. If you haven't used XEmacs CVS recently, we moved the repository before the 21.4.6 release. The repository structure is the same as before, so it should be possible to reuse an existing checked-out CVS tree. Take care that your Root is set correctly to CVSROOT=:pserver:cvs＠cvs.xemacs.org:/pack/xemacscvs On platforms with a Bourne shell and find available, something like for r in `find . -name Root`; do echo $CVSROOT > $r; done will convert your entire tree. Tags are also the same; to update to release 21.4.22, use the release tag "r21-4-22". To set a sticky tag which will always update to the current release, use the branch tag "release-21-4".
