+@item Jul 27th, 2003: Daily Snapshots
+
+ We're now building daily snapshots of Mono. They come in
+ three distinct flavors:
+
+ <ul>
+ * mono snapshot tarballs - These are 'release-style' tarballs and
+ contain everything necessary to setup a new
+ installation from scratch. This includes the Mono
+ runtime and all the assemblies we distribute.
+
+ * monocharge tarballs - These tarballs contain only
+ the assemblies built on that day.
+
+ * monolite tarballs - These tarballs contain a copy of
+ 'corlib.dll', 'mcs.exe' and 'System.dll'. They can be used to
+ re-bootstrap an out-of-sync installation.
+ </ul>
+
+ The daily builds are availble here: <a href="http://go-mono.com/daily">http://go-mono.com/daily</a>
+
+If you find that the builds are broken, please notify me.
+@item Jul 19th, 2003: Recent developments
+
+ Since Mono has matured, we have limited the news on the site
+ to major accomplishments that are finished, but this week, it
+ is worth devoting some time to talk about some of the
+ work-in-progress projects that are progressing.
+
+ Jackson has added support to the IL assembler for generics as
+ well as to the PEAPI library, and it has assembled its first
+ generic program. Support for handling images with generics
+ has been on our file format reader for a while, but the JIT
+ engine is still incomplete.
+
+ On the XSLT world, Atsushi and Ben continue to make big
+ improvements. Ben recently got the prototype managed XSLT
+ implementation to run its first stylesheet. Although
+ currently Mono uses libxslt to implement the System.Xml.Xsl
+ namespace, to have a fully .NET compliant implementation we
+ will need a managed version, and this is the beginning of it.
+
+ Lluis recently posted an update on the <a
+ href="http://lists.ximian.com/archives/public/mono-devel-list/2003-July/001550.html">state
+ of WSDL</a> in Mono. Now that the web services runtime is
+ ready, the WSDL compiler becomes more important as a
+ development tool.
+
+ Atsushi continues his work on the DTD validating reader in
+ System.Xml, as well as improving our XML Schema support.
+
+@item Jul 14th, 2003: New build system; IPV6 support.
+
+ Peter Williams has contributed a new build system that
+ addresses many of the annoyance we had with our previous build
+ system. He has worked on this for a few weeks, and Gonzalo
+ helped test it and get it into CVS. We no longer have the
+ historical dual build system: make for Unix and nant for
+ Windows.
+
+ This system also offers the opportunity to compile our class
+ libraries with different profiles (.NET 1.0, .NET 1.1 and the
+ various ECMA subsets).
+
+ Peter explains the new build system <a
+ href="http://lists.ximian.com/archives/public/mono-devel-list/2003-July/001506.html">here</a>
+
+ Jerome's IPV6 code has been checked into CVS; With Peter's new
+ build system, we will be able to expose it (as part of the
+ NET_1_1 build).
