[Dianne Skoll]

Hi,

Remind 04.02.00 BETA 1 is available in git.  You can directly download a
tarball from Debian's github machine:

https://salsa.debian.org/dskoll/remind/-/archive/04.02.00-BETA-1/remind-04.02.00-BETA-1.tar.gz

This release has a whole bunch of fixes and new features, so please test.
I'm very interested to see if someone can break the MSF-formatting fixes
that have been added.

Regards,

Dianne.
