  Hello!

  I would like to release 2.11.1 during next week; if you are interested
in using or distributing the 2.11 stable series, I want to invite you to
test release/2.11/master for few days now to make sure no regressions
against plain 2.11 were introduced.


  Errata:

  * IA64 users should beware that memchr() may crash when pointer
starts on mmap(MAP_SHARED) boundary and they should apply

	http://sources.redhat.com/ml/libc-alpha/2009-11/msg00032.html

(currently pending for master).

  * Empty /etc/resolv.conf incorrectly does not cause glibc to default
to localhost, to solve this issue please apply one of the patches in

	http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10851

(currently pending for master).
