Not really, no.

It's all in the CVS repository, but we don't seem to make that information available. Maybe we should generate a change log for everything between the previous point release and the current one. Anyone in favor? > [Also, can we put the handbook in a tar file to schlep it to other sites?] Sure! It's also part of the bin distribution now, so everyone will get it as a standard component. Jordan
