Hey, I was just able to build some Slackware packages, they're already in
the incoming folder and should soon be in the proper place for download, I'd
really appreciate it if people would check to make sure they're working like
they should.

On that note, I've ran into some bugs that I have no idea where they really
are!  All this is under Slackware 11.0 with WindowMaker.  The first few are
in GWorkspace...

1. When starting GWorkspace, it tries to contact fswatcher but fails with
the following message:
  2007-05-17 11:05:42.435 fswatcher[17031] inotify_init() failed!
As you can see, I used the --with-inotify option to build GWorkspace.

I think that the inotify-based fswatcher should be a distinct package. (as all 
the stuff in GWMetadata).

2. The Fiend and Tabbed Shelf do not work like they are supposed to.  If I
select to show them, a new entry will appear under the "Windows" menu
labeled "Window".  If I then hide it again (as in I don't want to see it
anymore) the entry under the "Windows" menu is still there, and if I click
on it it will again show the Fiend or Tabbed Shelf (which ever one this
entry corresponds to), but as far as GWorkspace knows it's still hidden
because the entry under "Tools->Fiend" is still showing "Show Fiend" for the
Fiend and the same for the Tabbed Shelf.

Fixed on SVN.

3. The "Logout" feature doesn't work either.  If I press it, and any other
GNUstep application is running it will close these applications but not
GWorkspace, and the "Logout" menu option will be blanked out, at which point
I need to hit "Quit" in order to actually quit GWorkspace.  This happens
everytime, no exception...  I get no errors on the terminal.

Fixed on SVN.

That's it for GWorkspace.

I'll make a bugfix release on the next days...

The next problem I think is in -gui and it's one that has been happening for
a while... it's the "menu bug".  That's when you start a new application and
the previously active application's menu is still active, but behind the
current application's menu.  There's a screenshot of this on the Wiki under
the LiveCD page.  I guess this has been around for a while, I just wanted to
let you know it's still there.

Over all, this new release is pretty good so far!  I haven't messed with it
much since I just got it installed
