I've uploaded skim version 0.8.2 to sunsite. You can find it in:

    sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/Incoming/skim-0.8.2.tgz

but it will soon move to:

    sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/system/News/readers/skim-0.8.2.tgz

Version 0.8.2 is a bug fix release. It fixes a core dump which could occur
when you performed 'skim subjects' and when you pressed 'Get New Subjects' 
in xskim.

What is skim?
- -------------
Skim is a graphical offline newsreader for Linux, which is designed to
minimize the online time when using a slow modem line (for example, 14K4
Slip or PPP).

Skim is useful when your phone company or Internet access provider charges
for online time, or when conventional newsreaders are too slow.
