My bad. I hadn't checked the website before posting.
Are these patches announced on any mailing lists out of interest?
I'd like to point out that the "upgrade" for the RaQ2 in fact breaks
POP mail completely. There's an entire thread on the Cobalt Users
list about it. The whole OS Update 3 upgrade has caused me nothing
but problems and I'd like to know, Jeff, why the upgrade hasn't been
pulled off the Cobalt download site?
