As most of you know, Mandriva Spring 2008.1 was released publicly on April 10th. I have already upgraded my boxes to 2008.1 so as of today I will no longer be able to build 2008.0 rpms. I am building 2008.1 rpms, and the urpmi.addmedia commands have been added to the 2008.html page as of today. Soon you all will start seeing the rpms filling up SoS-Main and SoS-Contrib. If there are any problems or issues, please feel free to contact me. Hope everyone is enjoying the site and is still finding it useful after nearly 4 years of me building rpms for the Mandriva community!

As many of you know, and many of you don't....I recently moved from Houston, Texas to Rome, Georgia. As a result of this SoS has been inactive for a while. Since there was the release of 2008 during this time I've gotten a lot of emails and people on IRC asking me if SoS was still going to make packages for the latest version of the OS. The answer is, OF COURSE :) It's just taken some time to get settled in the new place. Now that I seem to have that done and out of the way, it's time for SoS to start supplying its faithful users with new stuff for 2008. Currently I am working on KDE 3.5.8 and have a few other things in line as well. I am hoping to have all of KDE built, tested and online for everyone by the end of this week if all goes well. I apologize for the lack of communication over the past 2 months, but things have just been hectic. If there are any special packages you would like built, feel free to contact me and I'll try my best to get them built for you.

Something new and exciting has come to SoS. I can now offer user@seerofsouls.com email accounts. However, there's more. These accounts use the Gmail interface. They come with 2GB of space and have all the features as a regular Gmail account. Only difference is, it is a @seerofsouls.com address instead of @gmail.com address. If you are interested in one of these accounts for FREE, please email me using the contact form on the contact page and give me your first/last name, your suggested username, and a current email address so I can send you the information for logging into your account. There are only 200 available at the moment, so you better act quick.
