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?
