We announce the release newest alpha-test version (960207) of our
"pccard-test" package.

It enables FreeBSD-2.1.0 to drive many PCMCIA cards (Ethernet,
FAX/Modem, ISDN, Digital Cellular, SCSI, Flash ATA, ATA HDD) and
provides you "hotplug" PCMCIA feature on your laptop machines running
FreeBSD-2.1.0.  This work is based on Andrew McRae's sys/pccard
stuffs.

    --------------------------------------------------------------
    Caution!: This package is the alpha-test version.  Please
    backup your important data before installing this package.  We
    are not responsible for the proper functioning of it, and we

    --------------------------------------------------------------

You can get it from
ftp://bash.cc.keio.ac.jp/pub/os/FreeBSD/alpha-test/pccard/pccard-test-960207.tar.gz

Improvements upon last release:

	Too much.  It says all :-).
