[leafnode-list] [Leafnode-announce] Leafnode 1.9.39.rel released (STABLE)



-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

                ----------------------------------------
                 leafnode 1.9.39.rel has been released.
                ----------------------------------------

Leafnode 1.9.39 has been released. It fixes a DATA LOSS bug (that is on
the server side) that falsely tells a downstream client that sends a
STAT command with message-ID (leafnode, for example) it had the article
when in fact it hasn't. This causes data loss on leafnode clients
talking to leafnode servers before 1.9.39.

Note that you can subscribe to a moderated (non-spam) leafnode-announce
mailing list or you can watch file releases at sourceforge below, if you
want to be notified when new leafnode releases become available.

### CRITICAL BUGFIX (DATA LOSS IN LEAFNODE-TO-LEAFNODE CONVERSATION)
o Leafnode returned bogus "OK" replies to "STAT <mess@xxxxx>" requests
  when the currently selected group was a pseudogroup.
  This caused data loss when two leafnode versions are cascaded, because
  the downstream thinks the upstream already has the article and
  discards it.  Reported to Debian by Kyler Laird, forwarded by Mark
  Brown.
