I didn't get as much signoffs as I wanted (Dan signoffed on Jabber)
but it's somewhat understandable as this is low-usage tools these
days. I presume you  checked at least several clients/servers. Anyhow,
I got the required signoff but I'll wait until Sunday before moving it
to core and removing the packages it replaces. This will give the rest
of the week to test and report problems. BTW, as we'll be replacing
server packages, is this worthy of a front page news?
