Many tests and stability enhancements were performed last two weeks, giving this iso a release candidate status.

Infrastructure changes

The gobolinux.org infrastructure is moving to new hosts. This web site is already hosted in a new server; the binary package collections are now stored in mirrors at calica.com (thanks to Carlo Calica) and kundor.org (thanks to Nick Matteo). The mailing list addresses have changed, and are now hosted at wotfun.com, which now also answers as lists.gobolinux.org (thanks to Michael Homer).

During this transition period, the list and web site might become temporarily unavailable, while DNS catches up. We hope this outage to be as short as possible.
