Well, I "complained" (not really a complain), and that's why Nigel
talked about it.
There has been no new release since Philip quit. Some bugs have been
corrected in the CVS, but it wasn't really publicly available due to the
lack of documentation listing how to get anon CVS. So I tried getting a
snapshot like formerly, and I noticed the discrepancy between Cambridge
and the master site.
Also, people in a company context would have a hard time getting a CVS
snapshot behind proxies, so snapshot are probably still a good idea.

So, well, maybe it is the moment to make exim 4.70 available.
