[OpenAFS-announce] ANNOUNCE: AFS Perl API 2.4.0 Release Candidate 1

[Norbert Gruener]

AFS Perl API Version 2.4.0 Release Candidate 1
    I am pleased to announce the AFS Perl API 2.4.0-rc1 release

    The AFS module bundle is a dynamically loadable extension to
    Perl. It gives the AFS user and administrator access to many of
    the AFS programming APIs, allowing you to make these calls
    directly from Perl, rather then processing the output of a
    command. The AFS module bundle is a thin layer above the low-level
    AFS APIs.


Where To Get It
    This version will not go onto CPAN. The version 2.4.0-rc1 is now
    available at 

        http://www.MPA-Garching.MPG.de/~nog/perl/AFS-2.4.0-rc1.tar.gz

    This release should work on all UNIX/Linux platforms which have
    AFS API interfaces and the appropriate C compilation environment.
