+== Announcing CLFS 1.0.0rc1 - The "Bender" release ==
+
+The CLFS Development team is pleased to announce the first release
+candidate of CLFS-1.0.0, code-name "Bender".  This test release
+features Glibc 2.4, GCC 4.1.1, Binutils 2.17, and supports the x86,
+x86-64, sparc, powerpc, ppc64, mips, mips64, and alpha, including
+multilib on those arch's that support it.  Cross-building is also
+supported, even from non-Linux host systems such as Solaris, *BSD, and
+OS X.
+
+The developers encourage wide testing of the CLFS build on as many
+archs as possible, proofreading of the text, and any other
+suggestions.  Please open tickets in the Trac system at
+[http://trac.cross-lfs.org http://trac.cross-lfs.org] for any problems
+found, so we may address them.
+
+You may view the book online at:
+
+[http://cross-lfs.org/view/1.0.0rc1/ http://cross-lfs.org/view/1.0.0rc1/]
+
+and downloadable versions are available for most arch's at:
+
+[http://cross-lfs.org/files/BOOK/1.0.0rc1/ http://cross-lfs.org/files/BOOK/1.0.0rc1/]
+
+This release is tagged in SVN at the following location, if you wish
+to render it yourself:

+[http://svn.cross-lfs.org/svn/repos/cross-lfs/tags/1.0.0rc1 http://svn.cross-lfs.org/svn/repos/cross-lfs/tags/1.0.0rc1]
+
+Roadmap:
+
+The current plan calls for RC2 to be released on July 8th, and the
+final release of 1.0.0 on July 15th.  Of course, we want to make every
+effort to ensure a good release, so if further RC's are necessary, we
+will allow for them.
+
+We thank you for your support!
