A few more notes by me:
fink should be Fink here: fink is the package manager, Fink the whole
distro. Also, kde3 -> KDE3. I present a slightly shorter alternate
headline, tell me which one you like more... I agree that we should
not try overly much to advertise for OS X, that is a maybe good idea
if we announce this in a Unix forum, and want to get people to
convert to OS X, but on fink-announce, people will hardly be
impressed. So I ended up with this:
Fink 0.5.0a brings UNIX power to OS X 10.2 (Jaguar)
OR
UNIX applications run on OS X 10.2 (Jaguar) with Fink release 0.5.0a
------------------------------------------------------------------
Fink, the free open source UNIX porting project for Mac OS X, reached
another milestone December 8th with the release of version 0.5.0a.
This release brings full Mac OS X 10.2 (Jaguar) compatibility.
Applications included in Fink range from well-known UNIX desktops
such as KDE3 and GNOME, open-source alternatives for graphics editing
such as the Gimp, and special-purpose applications for genetic and
molecular modeling. In total, over 700 binary packages for Mac OS X
as well as over 1800 source packages can be easily installed (and
removed) with the aid of fink.
Fink 0.5.0a is available at http://fink.sf.net/
What do you think?
