Hello everyone!


Expat 2.4.0 (and 2.4.1) most importantly brings protection against
Billion Laughs Attacks (CVE-2013-0340).  There is a blog post [1] and
the change log with more details.

If you have patches for Expat that are still required with version
2.4.1, please send them my way.  Thank you!

Best



Sebastian

Hi everyone,


more than half of you have updated to 2.4.1 already [1], very nice.
Please let me know if you need any help with updating or backporting or
something like that.

Thanks and best



Sebastian
