I should have warned about -11 and -12 being so close to each other. There
is not much you have to download. I'll put the most important packages and
directions on the FTP site so that you don't download the whole iso. This
is something I'll do for all the following releases.

No problem. I found some problems with the CD yesterday and I'll have
to change a few things. But the version number won't change, because all
the cover and dummy stuff that has to be delivered to the print company is
