-I'm proud to release version 1.4.10 of Roundup which fixes some bugs:
-
-- Minor update of doc/developers.txt to point to the new resources
-  on www.roundup-tracker.org (Bernhard Reiter)
-- Small CSS improvements regaring the search box (thanks Thomas Arendsan Hein)
-  (issue 2550589)
-- Indexers behaviour made more consistent regarding length of indexed words
-  and stopwords (thanks Thomas Arendsen Hein, Bernhard Reiter)(issue 2550584)
-- fixed typos in the installation instructions (thanks Thomas Arendsen Hein)
-  (issue 2550573) 
-- New config option csv_field_size: Pythons csv module (which is used
-  for export/import) has a new field size limit starting with python2.5.
-  We now issue a warning during export if the limit is too small and use
-  the csv_field_size configuration during import to set the limit for
-  the csv module.
-- Small fix for CGI-handling of XMLRPC requests for python2.4, this
-  worked only for 2.5 and beyond due to a change in the xmlrpc interface
-  in python
-- Document filter method of xmlrpc interface
-- Fix interaction of SSL and XMLRPC, now XMLRPC works with SSL
+This is the announcement of version 1.4.18 of Roundup, a Bug-Fix Release
+for a critical bug in roundups mail gateway.
+The bug will lead to files being unlinked from issues when mails without
+attachment are received for an existing issue. See the "Software
+Upgrade" guidelines in doc/announcement.txt (or the html version) for a
+script you can run to find out potentially affected issues and how to
+fix this. As usual some minor features and some bug fixes:
+
+Features:
+
+- Norwegian Bokmal translation by Christian Aastorp
+- Allow to specify additional cc and bcc emails (not roundup users) for
+  nosymessage used by the nosyreaction reactor. (Ralf)
+
+Fixed:
+
+- Fix file-unlink bug in mailgw (Ralfs oversight when refactoring the mail
+  gateway code) -- if a message is sent that contains no attachments,
+  all previous files of the issue are unlinked, thanks to Rafal
+  Bisingier for reporting and proposing a fix.
+  I've now added a regression test that catches this issue.
 
 If you're upgrading from an older version of Roundup you *must* follow
 the "Software Upgrade" guidelines given in the maintenance documentation.
