The Athena 9.4.36 patch release is currently scheduled for the evening
of Monday January 29. Changes include:
On both platforms:
* Firefox is upgraded to version 1.5.0.9.
* The JDK is updated to version 1.5.0.10.
* A couple of crash bugs are fixed in jwrite and jwgc.
* sshd should stop crashing when credentials are forwarded.
* Evolution will use a local-disk message cache.
* olc commands have been moved to a locker.
On Linux:
* OpenAFS is downgraded to patched 1.4.1 as we've been seeing
cluster machine crashes with 1.4.2.
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.
