[darcs-users] Fwd: Releasing 2.8

[Ganesh Sittampalam]

The patches in question are

http://bugs.darcs.net/patch598
http://bugs.darcs.net/patch605

to fix

http://bugs.darcs.net/issue2065

It may be expedient to temporarily roll back the version bump and the
regex checking for 2.8 (ideally only on the branch) for distro
friendliness. We can expect the platform to have caught up by 2.10.
