The Athena 9.2.17 patch release is currently scheduled for the evening

On both platforms:
  * from works for long lists of messages, and better handles errors.
  * revert-to-dash works again.
  * dm has minor fixes.
  * bonobo processes are cleaned up at logout.
  * ifhp is more careful not to send zephyrs to <message,personal,*>.
  * pdflatex works again.
  * ssh/sshd has a buffer management fix.
On Solaris:
  * console logins will have proper ttys again.
  * 9.2 installs are fixed.
On Linux:
  * Evolution won't crash if you enable SSL.
  * The Red Hat openssh RPMs are updated for the buffer fix.

If you have a machine set AUTOUPDATE=false, you can update it manually
after the release goes out by doing a console login as root and
running "update_ws".

Please send any questions or comments to release-team@mit.edu.  Please
report any bugs you find with the "sendbug" command.
