All, I'm pleased to announce the availability of 4.10-BETA for i386. 4.10-BETA for alpha will be following shortly as we work out some problems. 4.10 is the next step in the 4-STABLE branch, and as such contains primarily bug fixes and incremental functionality improvements. One significant new feature is the merging of the USB stack and drivers from 5.x. This should provide significantly better USB support from what previously existed in 4.x, and I ask everyone to test it out as much as possible in the BETA phase. The BETA phase will last for at least another 10 days and might include a BETA2 snapshot to address some sysinstall and boot floppy issues that we recently came across. We ask that everyone thoroughly test this out so that we can have a stable and successfull 4.10 release. I would also like to thank Ken Smith for his invaluable help in getting this released, and I would like to welcome Hiroki Sato to the release engineering team! Thanks, Scott
