Yep, as Garry posted earlier, AJ has released Woody. The mirrors should 
already be up to date since the main work in the release is now just updating 
a couple of symlinks, and creating a new 'testing' version.  This testing 
appears to be called 'sarge'.

The next PLUG meeting is a workshop at UCC (UWA). As many people know, UWA 
hosts a (partial) mirror of Debian; anyone who wants to update to the final 
Woody can do so for free at the meeting.

Its been a very long release; there has been much critisism of the time taken. 
However, I think that with the significant bugs found recently with packages 
such as SSH, Apache, etc, this release of Debian is in a better position 
than what it would have been if released 3 months ago. 

I think AJ deserves a big well done for the job; the pressure on just 
releasing has been huge.
