Okay. Again for everybody:

HOWTO get an email when a new DokuWiki is released:

1. Register at http://freshmeat.net/
  - it's free and gives you better filters and search functions as
    well!

2. Login with your shiny new freshmeat account

3. Goto http://freshmeat.net/projects/dokuwiki/

4. Scroll down to the light gray bar - the third point is
   "Subscribe to new releases" - click it

5. If you want to get emergency mails for security related stuff
   as well, check the "Permit subscriber mails" checkbox

6. Click finish


That's it, you're subscribed to the one and only dokuwiki announcement list


PS: Anyone want to put this up on the Wiki somewhere?
