[Haskell-cafe] announcing darcs 2.1.1rc2

[Eric Kow]

Hi everybody,

The release candidate for darcs 2.1.1 is now available at
  http://darcs.net/darcs-2.1.1rc2.tar.gz

This release is very much intended to be darcs 2.1.0 plus GHC 6.10.1
support.  We have also thrown in some simplifications to the regression
testing suite and a Windows bugfix (which we pulled in because of a
dependency and retained because it was a small and useful).

Please give this a try, especially those of you on GHC 6.10 or Windows,
and let us know how things work out.

Because we have only selected a very small subset of changes to include
(using darcs's cherry-picking abilities, of course!), I am confident
that we can get by on a reduced release cycle.  If all goes well, the
official release date for darcs 2.1.1 will be 2008-11-17.

Thanks!

Eric
