Hello everybody,

back from my short break (and thanks for all the cards for Renee, she 
was dumbstruck, I'll tell more about it later).

First order of business: a new TeX Foundation (texmf tree) release. Two 
reasons: there was a typo (bug therefore) in the remove script of the 
TeX Foundation i-Package (teTeX-texmf.ii) which probably never hurt 
anyone as nobody ever removes the foundation. But in case you have at 
one time, an unused copy of texmf.local is located in /Library/teTeX, it 
can safely be removed unless you have at one time added something there 
yourself. Secondly, as promised before my break, I have updated the 
texmf tree to the latest (beta) release by Thomas Esser.

To upgrade, just open your existing *dedicated* i-Installer for TeX and 
update TeX Foundation. The current release of i-Installer (the installer 
engine) is 1.0f. If your dedicated i-Installer is older, please get a 
new TeX-fat.dmg or TeX-thin.dmg.

For instructions to download a new set, go to http://www.rna.nl/tex.html 
as usual.

As always: if you experience any problems, contact me directly and 
include the output from the installer. I'll try to update the web page 
with known problems and their causes soon.
