Libranet Newsletter    July 05, 2004

Greetings!

LIBRANET 2.8.1 TRIAL DOWNLOAD
---------------------------------

The Libranet 2.8.1 official Flagship version has been released as a free trial
download.  We are hoping with this release to significantly increase the number
of Libranet users and to achieve advance publicity for Libranet version 3.0.

The Libranet download page has details:
http://libranet.com/download.html

VERSION 3.0 COMING ALONG NICELY
---------------------------------
Libranet 3.0 is progressing well.  Much of the work is now concentrated on the
brand new installer.  Most of the installer is graphical, it will include the
2.8.1 features as well as some new ones.  We are not sure when the beta will be
ready for testing and will let you know when we do.

USERS TO THE RESCUE
---------------------------------
When the 2.8.1 trial was released and publicized on DistroWatch, the response
was so large that our servers bandwidth usage shot sky high.  To help offset
the load, we set up the download on BitTorrent and a number of users, after
downloading, responded by leaving their BitTorrent clients running to help.
Also we very much appreciate users that are helping to get the word out about
the download.

---------------------------------
All the best,
- The Libranet Team
