	I was wondering why there had been no annoucement on the lists
yet about it, though I did notice it was date stamped today. Didn't
realize I had caught it quite that quick though. :)
	I was just cleaning up the patches and web page for beta3 when I
thought I had better check the ftp site just one more time. Especially
after the last two times I have sat down to work on the Linux/Alpha
patches, before I could finish a new beta would come out... and I it was
true once again! :( Thankfully, my current beta3 patch applied only with a
tad bit of fuzz to beta4. It was only the beta1 to beta2 transistion that
was painful (thanks to int8.c). I guess it is only fair that I got "ahead"
for once.
	Glad I was able to add a bit of humor to your day. :)
