The third Beta of the upcoming Mandrake Linux 9.0 is now available. Thanks to
many helpful suggestions and reports, Beta 3 contains numerous corrections
and improvements to the DrakX installer and assorted software.

The third Beta also introduces new features, including:

- The first release of 'drakcronat'. Drakcronat is a utility for configuring
'at' and 'cron' jobs.

- WebDAV file system support has been integrated into the kernel and in
drakconf. WebDAV allows users to collaboratively edit and manage files on
remote web servers.

- koffice 1.2rc1, an office productivity suite from KDE, is now available in
a new fully-functional version.

- i845 support for 2D in XFree86 appears with this third Beta.

There's still room for improvements and additional testing, so we would
greatly appreciate everyone's participation.
