+<p><B>2006-03-20 </B>Mondo 2.0.7 / Mindi 1.0.7 are out</p>
+<p>
+I'm happy to announce the availability of the latest and greatest
+version of mondo 2.0.7 / mindi 1.0.7. Version numbers have changed of
+format to be more in line with what is done generally (x.y.z)
+</p>
+<p>
+Now available at ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/mondorescue :

+src/mondo-2.0.7-r447.tgz<br>
+</p>
+
+<p>
+Other distributions will follow asap (should be able to produce soon
+redhat 7.3, fedora core 4, and only after rhel3/4 and sles9) due to the
+change in the virtual machines I have to do (now using qemu + more tools
+to generate RPMs)
+</p>
+
+<p>
+The focus on this version has been more around the new website and
+documentation, and a bit less on code. So some persistant bugs are still
+not corrected (some dvd burning issues and dm/lvm2 support mainly) and
+will be hopefully in 2.0.8.
