This is another primarily Bugfix release of BeleniX. A bunch of issues 
were fixed
and various improvements have been made. Some important changes are:

* The BeleniX FAQ: http://www.genunix.org/wiki/index.php/Belenix_FAQ is now
  online.
* Fixed the Xorg 6.9 locale issue and made openmotif more compatible 
with Solaris
  motif.
* Included libusb and libusbugen from the the SFW Consolidation.
* Fixed harddisk install and made several updates to the hdinstaller 
utility.
* The SVR4 Packaging tools have been included and a modified pkg-get has 
also
  been included. This allows one to install and use Blastwave packages 
on BeleniX,
  see "How do I manage Packages" in the BeleniX FAQ.
  In addition the Pkgsrc ports tree can also be used.

* Fixed the mime type problem with Evince and upgraded Firefox and 
Thunderbird -
  gave quite a bit of a headache.
* Improved boottime performance by various means including increasing the
  compression segment size to 128KB.

Regards,
Moinak.
