Subject: [poky] Poky Version 3.1 (Pinky) Released

It gives me great pleasure to announce a new release of Poky, version
3.1 (Pinky).</pre>
    <p>
      <a href="http://pokylinux.org">Poky 3.1</a> is released!  We've been hard
      at work for this one, mainly deep in the guts to make it more portable and
      powerful.  Of interest to GNOME developers is that Pinky is shipping a
      complete GMAE 2.20 platform, and a plugin for Anjuta to make building and
      deploying software for your target device trivial.
    </p>
    <p>
      We've also got a sweet new web site and possibly the cutest mascot ever.
      I, for one, can't wait to stroke a plush Beaver.
    </p>

      From the most excellent <cite><a
      href="http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/0701181451?ie=UTF8&tag=1799&linkCode=as2&camp=1634&creative=6738&creativeASIN=0701181451">Flat
      Earth News</a></cite>, a rip-roaring (I've always said that phrase should
      be used more) tale of corruption, falsehood and propaganda in journalism:
    </p>
    <blockquote><p>
        <q>The readers are never wrong.  Repulsive, maybe, but never wrong.</q>
        - Piers Morgan, as editor of the <cite>Daily Mirror</cite>, referring to
          how he lost circulation due to the paper's stance against the Iraq
          invastion.
      </p></blockquote>
    <p>
      <cite>Flat Earth News</cite> is a great book, and I can recommend it to
      everyone who is disappointed with the state of global journalism, and even
      more to anyone who thinks journalism is in general doing a good job.
    </p>
