'''RELEASE''' -- MythTV v0.20 was officially released at 0316EDT on Monday 11 Sep 2006. The link to the release announcement and download links is at the top of the page.  '''Remember to back up your database before upgrading, and run mythtv-setup afterwards.'''  Feel free to write up your upgrade process and put it in [[:Category:Upgrading]].  This morning's Slashdotting appears to have subsided, though downloads may still be slow.  Welcome aboard, new users!
 
 
 
'''RELEASE BUG''' -- The mythplugins tarball released Monday morning apparently acquired a small problem in the packaging process, and installs a MythWeb that won't work.  If you grabbed it, and use that, and have that problem, you can grab an updated copy of just that tarball now.  This also applies to early ATRPMs packages; I *think* Axel has updated ones up now.  Axel's YUM and similar repositories are shipping0.20, he says, even though his web pages haven't caught up yet.  --[[User:Baylink|Baylink]] 16:18, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
