Thanks to the anonymous tipster on the updated Fedora release date!

Fedora 9 is 13th May not 9th.
Where did XP SP3 go?
It’s comming out tomorrow (officially, torrent downloads doesn’t count!)
Oops, fixed.
I forgot to put it back in, but I was actually going to announce it today. There are official links floating around out there now, but I decided not to post it at the last minute because there wasn’t an official page setup for it. All that you can find right now are the direct links. I’ll still post in the Daily Downloads when there is an official page setup for it.
Weather watcher is great little program.
I’ve used it for years, and it continues to get better and better. I’m truly amazed that they continue to offer it for free, but I won’t complain. ;)
Guys, the beta version of Miranda 0.8 is the Build 13, not 14, which, if IIRC, was featured before in Daily Downloads. They also published a preview version of Miranda 0.7.5.
Huh, the mirror says Test Build 14 which is what must have thrown me off.
Apparently, the guys at Fileforum found the build in Sourceforge, and they submitted the link, but the Miranda team pulled it because it’s not ready for testing. At least that’s what I understand from the Miranda forum comments. Oh well, it’ll be up for real in a few days.
That makes sense… just glad I wasn’t completely crazy.
