Unfortunately, this is difficult to do before the move. That's why I wanted the web site to move as soon as possible, so that I can play directly with the files (using my account on the new box, once it is set up) and replace the temporary news that have been put on mmmaybe as a test by the "real" news that have been posted over the years on news.gimp.org and more recently on www.gimp.org. Adding a single news item for 1.3.21 would be a quick hack, but would not solve the problem of migrating the news archive to the new site. I prepared some of the work by extracting all individual news items that have been posted on the old web site out of its private CVS repository, but now I need the web site to be moved before I can import all these articles with correct dates and authors into the new system. In summary, this premature announcement on Slashdot coupled with the delayed move of the web site is just causing a big mess. :-( -Raphaël
