Factor 0.85 released

Factor 0.85 is now available. Check out the change log. Thanks to Doug Coleman for the Windows package and Alex Chapman for the Mac OS X Intel package.

Chris Double found a silly regression: the contrib/furnace module does not load. Now this module is not very useful yet, but nevertheless, I did ensure that all modules load before releasing 0.85, then went ahead and made some changes to Furnace without testing if they load in a fresh image. How foolish. Anyway if you feel like taking a look at the new incomplete web framework, you should use the latest code from the Darcs repository instead.

Slava,

On occasions, I have problems with a page or 2 from various sites. The front page of minixtips is another - yet I can see other pages on the site (strange).
