Release candidates for 1.61.0 beta 1 are now available:

As always, the release managers would appreciate it if you download the candidate of your choice and give building it a try. Please report both success and failure, and anything else that is noteworthy.

and one user-visible change is that the directory inside archive is named after git commit hash. This will be changed for the final release. Otherwise, these were smoke-tested on Windows and Linux, and should be functionally identical to usual packages.

I'd like to request that we roll a 1_61_0_b2 without this change. The directory structure is a big part of what we need to verify and this throws off the build system that I've had running.

Ah.. The directory structure is the same. Only the top level dir is different. Could you be specific as to how it throws off your build? -- -- Rene Rivera -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Robot Dreams - http://robot-dreams.net -- rrivera/acm.org (msn) - grafikrobot/aim,yahoo,skype,efnet,gmail
