Hello,

we are very happy to announce a new maintenance release for CAT.
Version 1.0.4 has the following Changelog:

Changes in release 1.0.4
========================
- [BUGFIX #1]  main page layout error
- [BUGFIX #2]  no error handling for broken installers in case of an
               additional download message
- [BUGFIX #3]  fix broken link to TTLS-GTC tip (now links to TERENA
               Confluence)
- [BUGFIX #4]  complain about missing root CA also if the CA is
               uploaded on IdP
               level, but masked due to profile level CAs
- [BUGFIX #5]  fix one profile tag for W8 TTLS-MSCHAPv2
- [BUGFIX #6]  certificates were not installed for W8 TTLS
- [BUGFIX #7]  temporary directory cleanup did not work
- [BUGFIX #8]  updated jquery-ui form 1.8.5 to 1.8.24 thus avoiding a
               problem in IE 9 and IE 10
- [BUGFIX #8]  Linux installer turned off IPv6, turned back to 'auto'
               now
- [FEATURE #1] Federation statistics added for fed operators (in UI and
               API, API keyword is "STATISTICS")
- [FEATURE #2] Mavericks support added
- [FEATURE #3] Changed the text in "Report a problem" which also
               resulted in a new config variable $APPEARANCE['support-
               url'], also hardcoded 
cat-devel AT geant.net
 into the
               'Become a CAT developper' display text
- [FEATURE #4] publicly accessible user download statistics per profile
               ( web/user/statistics.php?profile=xyz )
- [FEATURE #5] add links to IdP and federation admin documentation
- [FEATURE #6] add an eap-specific flag turning on different user-name
               in Windows EAP-TLS

As you can see, only minor bug fixes and tiny features with a known-low
impact on the system were added in this release. Most of these fixes
were already applied to the CAT instance on cat.eduroam.org a long time
ago, and are thus already "battle-tested".

The source tarball will show up within a few hours or days at the usual
place:

http://downloads.geant.net -> Roaming -> eduroam CAT

Since the download portal does not support HTTPS, here is instead the
sha1sum of the tarball (and this email is signed with my GPG key):

937bbc24c868ae236a6f71280f93c59b13c5aab0  CAT-1.0.4.tar.bz2

For anyone who is deploying the software on their own, outside the
cat.eduroam.org context: when upgrading from 1.0.3, note that there is
one SQL schema change (addition of the attribute
"eap-specific:tls_use_other_id") and one new config variable,
"$APPEARANCE['support-url']".

We will upgrade the cat.eduroam.org instance in the coming days; the
exact downtime announcement will be displayed as MOTD on the website.

** New mailing list: cat-announce **

I have received notice that some people subscribe to cat-users just
because they want get notified of new releases - but don't care much
about day-to-day chat. For these purposes, we have created a new
mailing list:

cat-announce AT geant.net

Subscription at:

https://mail.geant.net/mailman/listinfo/cat-announce

Thanks for using CAT software!

Greetings,

Stefan Winter
