+A note on solved bugs
+=====================
+
+After the release of 1.3.0 and 1.3.1 we received lots of usefull bug-reports.
+At this moment we can say that most issues are solved.
+One of the biggest bug reporter was Cor Bosman from the dutch ISP XS4ALL.
+They scheduled the use of SquirrelMail 1.3.2 because of it's UID support.
+At this moment they are switched over to 1.3.2 CVS and it's running fine on
+the production servers. The imap-server load was dropped significantly and
+that's exactly what we tried to establish in the DEVEL branche.

+About our Release Aliases
 =========================

-In the last months we have had our development team enlarged by,
-amongst others, Marc. Marc has been one of the greatest contributors
-to the stable series. After the release of 1.3.0, just 2 days ago, he
-managed to fix many many small bugs that were found. Almost when
-others (including myself) just thought "Huh, another release?" Marc
-was working hard to improve all kind of things. All fixes in this
-release (and possibly new bugs ;-)) are due to his hard work.
-
-Keep up the good work, Marc!
+With the release of 1.3.2 we can say we realy cracked some nuts regarding
+hard to solve issues. 
+Future devel versions will continue carrying "Nut" releasenames
+to keep the squirrel satisfied. Since winter is coming we better hurry up
+with new "Nut" releases. We don't want a death squirrel due to starvation.
+So next time you see a squirrel feed him nuts, think about SquirrelMail and
+a new friendship is born.
 
 
                   Happy SquirrelMailing!
