Description

The current section "News" at the BLFS website http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/news.html states the BLFS 6.1-pre1 is the latest release. However following the link in that statement "LFS Website" http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/6.1/brings you to the book which is titled

"Beyond Linux® From Scratch Version 6.1" BLFS Development Team Copyright © 2001-2005 BLFS Development Team 2005-08-14 Revision History Revision 6.1 2005-08-14 Fifth Release Revision 6.0 2005-04-02 Fourth release Revision 5.1 2004-06-05 Third release Revision 5.0 2003-11-06 Second release Revision 1.0 2003-04-25 First release

as opposed to

"Beyond Linux® From Scratch Version 6.1-pre1"

Well, which is it? Is it version 6.1 or version 6.1-pre1?

There is also a grammatical error in the paragraph at the news section of the website as shown below.

BLFS News

BLFS 6.1-pre1

Bruce Dubbs - 2005/08/01

BLFS 6.1-pre1 is now available for viewing at the LFS Website. Mirrors

should synchronize within a day. [This release is updates many BLFS packages and is the complement to the 6.1 version of LFS.]

Note the [is] in [This release is updates.......]?

Could perhaps read [This release updates many BLFS packages and is the compliment to the 6.1 version of LFS]

I hope info this helps and does not offend. It's just something that has been bugging me.

The 6.1 book has been rendered, but may be rerendered for a last minute change to one package. Then the release announcement will be made.
