BLAG9001 is an updated release of BLAG9000. The major changes are lots of 
RedHat errata fixes (new kernel, new XFree86, new glibc), some BLAG package 
updates, and a handful of new packages. If you are running 9000, you can get 
all of these updates via apt-get or synaptic.

A bit of the New
================
dasher
dasher is an information-efficient text-entry interface, driven by natural 
continuous pointing gestures. Dasher is a competitive text-entry system 
wherever a full-size keyboard cannot be used. This is a dry explanation for a 
tool that allows you to type by sailing through letters. Works with gnome.

kernel-ntfs
This RPM contains a binary Linux kernel module, which provides read-only NTFS 
support.

netatalk
This package enables Linux to talk to Macintosh computers via the AppleTalk 
networking protocol. It includes a daemon to allow Linux to act as a file 
server over EtherTalk or IP for Macs.

Updated BLAG packages
=====================
alsa, mhash, blender, sodipodi, transcode, synaptic, swh-plugins, speex, 
speedtouch, pfaedit, kino, freej, dvdauthor, bluefish, gtkpod, vls, and 
dvgrab.

Updated RedHat errata fixes
===========================
rsync, net-snmp, kernel, XFree86, iproute, pan, glibc, and ethereal.
