I have just made a candidate release for 4.61 available here:

ftp://ftp.csx.cam.ac.uk/pub/software/email/exim/Testing/exim-4.61-RC1.tar.gz.sig

A lot of work has been done since 4.60, so there are lots of changes.
The tradition for some years has been not to update the manual between
.x0 releases, but I think the time has come to break with tradition. I
am therefore planning on updating the manual before the proper 4.61
release which I hope to do in a couple of weeks' time. The reasons are:

(1) There are a lot of changes, some quite important, and also there are
a couple of residual bugs in the manual itself from the changeover in
the way it is created.

(2) I don't want to put the release number up to 4.70 because I don't
want to run out of 4.xx numbers before I retire!

Now may be the time to consider moving permanently to Nigel's preferred
state where there is always a fully-updated manual for each release.
