News
====

Mark reported Joe is testing changes to OpenAFS to accommodate linux 64-bit
timestamps.

Mark reported a bug has been discovered on 1.8.0 fileservers where the fileserver
crashes due to a assertion failure. This bug looks to be related to rx_event
changes in the 1.8.x branch (commit 8ce3b5e).  Mark discussed the issue
with Ben during the release-team meeting and is currently investigating.


1.6.x stable series
===================

Stephan reported progress made on the 1.6.23pre1 release preparation.

1.8.x series
============

Ben reported a git tag has landed for 1.8.1pre1. Tarballs have not
been created yet.

Ben also reported after further discussion and review it was decided not to
revert the getdslot-eintr topic commits already present in the 1.8.1 stack.
