Eli,

First - I don't know whats happening with your mailer - see how I get your 
message here in KMail (KDE CVS) - every other email looks ok here. (see your 
email below)

As for your question - from what I know it should be out tommorow if I'm not 
mistaken. I haven't finished my mailing war there (they make the KDE & GNOME 
with the same look and feel in every aspect - but what pisses me off is that 
instead of having KMail and Konqueror icons in the panel - you'll get 
Evolution and Mozilla. I know it takes 2 seconds to modify that, but I'm 
worried from the end users - 90% of them don't change anything from the 
default install, which means that they won't use Konqueror or Kmail).

Changes in the upcoming RedHat:

* LSB certified (adios United Linux)
* GLIBC 2.2.9
* KDE 3.0.3, GNOME 2.0 (maybe 2.0.1 - donno)
* forget locale - everything now in the default is utf-8 (which means - BUTT 
ugly fonts!)
* every config is not redhat-config-something, so instead of Xconfigurator, 
it's not "redhat-config-xfree" and no, no symbolic links are provided..
* They added FirstBoot - so instead of doing your config of X in the 
installation (and setting up the mouse, keyboard, etc) - you'll do it after 
finishing booting the first time, which looks really nice.
* GCC 3.2 which is not binary backward compatible with GCC 3.x
* RPM 4.1.0 - which got better signature for RPMS, and --whatprovides gives 
you the RPM name that you need to install, so start hacking some scripts for 
auto install RPMS ;)
* Everything is now anti aliased - for good or bad, depends on your view.
* LPR/LPD seems to be deprecated in favour of CUPS. Its still there (LPD) but 
with intension to be removed.
* Netscape 4.x - gone

These are just some of the highlights of the upcoming RedHat. I would strongly 
suggest NOT to use it in a production enviroment!

Thanks,
Hetz
