The Athena 9.4.38 patch release is currently scheduled for the evening
of Monday April 23.  Changes include:

On both platforms:
  * Firefox 1.5.0.10
  * OpenAFS 1.4.3
  * ispell 3.3.0.2
  * The gnome-panel run dialog should perform more reasonably.
On Linux:
  * We are using the Red Hat-packaged Flash 9 browser plugin.
On Solaris:
  * Several OS patches will be applied, mostly security fixes.

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.
