Release notes:

- Switch to udev, update of dynamic and the initscripts, that is

- Linux kernel 2.6.8.1.
- Two new comers in the now big drak* family, drakroam for wireless
connections and drakbt as bittorrent wizard.
- Evolution, we had some reports, we would like to be sure everything
is now working correctly.
- The litte net applet in the task bar to check the network status.
- Update of dcraw which allow to convert most of the raw format of
digital cameras.
- Displaying of release notes during packages installation. They may
move somewhere else, but to check the feature.
- Again gnome 2.6 to test.
