The next installation of the Killer B's is here.  Get it from:
	ftp://ftp.xemacs.org/pub/beta/xemacs-20.3/

* Comments:
I had a dicey time getting this built, but I think the worst of the
kinks are out.  This is an evil omen before what I had hoped to be a
stabilizing beta.  You might find the info in etc/InstallGuide useful
as a last resort ... 

The next scheduled 20.3 beta is set for *Saturday August 30*.  I'm
planning on diverting my attention to getting 19.16 out the door in
the next couple weeks.  19.16-beta90 (based on Alvin Shelton's 19.15p7 
plus some package upgrades) is scheduled for release on Wednesday.
Hopefully it will be the only beta required for 19.16.

Beware about failed patches to autoloads files.  The previous versions 
of the auto-autoloads.el files didn't bytecompile correctly.

* Distribution Info:
The patches are in
	xemacs-20.3-b17-20.3-b18.patch.gz
See etc/BETA for patching instructions.  GNU Patch is the preferred
patching program, and Patch-2.4 seems O.K., Patch-2.2 and patch-2.3
are deadly.  To apply patches posted to xemacs-beta generated with `cvs
diff' an incantation of the form:

$ cd <your-xemacs-beta-top-level-source-directory>
$ POSIXLY_CORRECT=t patch -bp0 < <the-email-file>

works.

The beta distribution is divided into 4 pieces:
	xemacs-20.3-b18.tar.gz
The primary Lisp/C/etc. sources.

	xemacs-20.3-b18-info.tar.gz
The info tree if you do not have a recent patched version of makeinfo.

	xemacs-20.3-b18-elc.tar.gz
Fresh bytecompiled lisp.

	xemacs-20.3-b18-LEIM.tar.gz
Quail input method.  Not all of Quail is functional yet.  If there is
no .elc file the corresponding .el does not work in this beta.

* Package Updates:
footnote minor mode is now available as a package.  There will be an
update of the Gnus package to 5.4.65 (and patches so it can built by
hand) shortly.
