The other mirrors should have it shortly.

     Please note that I will be out of town and most likely without
Internet access from now through around the beginning of March.  If an
urgent issue (e.g. a security hole) arises before then, please post
patches on this list in addition to the ircservices-coding list to make
sure they reach the largest number of people.  (Non-urgent issues should
remain on the -coding list only, as always.)  I will read through the
mailing list mail when I return and resolve outstanding issues at that
time.
