Subject: [MacPorts-announce] MacPorts 1.8.0 has been released
Message-ID: <4A9776DC.3010707@macports.org>

The MacPorts Project is happy to announce that the 1.8.0 version has now
been released. It is available via the usual methods:

 - selfupdate if you already have it installed
 - package installers in DMGs for 10.4 [1], 10.5 [2], and 10.6 [3] (all
   universal builds, the first two i386/ppc and the latter i386/x86_64)
 - source tarballs, both .tar.bz2 [4] and .tar.gz [5]
 - subversion tag [6]

The list of what's new in 1.8.0 is quite extensive (so I won't list it
here), the details can be found in the NEWS [7] file or the somewhat
more exhaustive ChangeLog [8].

A big thanks to the developers for their hard work with all of the
various features and bug fixes in 1.8.0, and to everyone for your
patience while waiting for this version.

Detached PGP signatures for the DMGs and source tarballs have been made
with my key, which is available on the keyservers and my MacPorts wiki
page [9].
