[iPAQ] Familiar 0.8.2 released

Hello all,

It gives us great pleasure to announce the the newest release of the Familiar
Linux distribution for handheld devices, version 0.8.2.

Familiar now officially supports the HP Jornada 720 and 56x PDAs, in addition
to the previously supported Compaq/HP iPAQ and Sharp Zaurus model handhelds.
Also, many bugs have been fixed since the previous release. Check out the
change log [1] for full details.

Installation and download information for Familiar 0.8.2 can be found here:

   http://familiar.handhelds.org/releases/v0.8.2/install/files/
     (for images/files other than those accessible via the download page)

As always, please check the release notes [2] for any known issues. Please
report any other problems to the Familiar mailing list
(familiar_at_handhelds.org) or use the bug tracker [3].

The Familiar release team would like to thank (in no particular order):

 * The OpenEmbedded team
 * The Opie and GPE teams
 * The OpenZaurus people
 * The handhelds.org kernel hackers
 * All package developers
 * Pre-release testers and bug-reporters
 * People who helped out on the wiki, mailing lists and IRC

And finally, thanks to Hewlett-Packard, the handhelds.org admin team and
especially George France for the often thankless task of keeping
handhelds.org running smoothly.

Without the continued support of all contributors and users, Familiar would
not be possible. We can't thank you all enough.

Regards,

The Familiar Release Team
