Here it 5.2b

This beta version include many important changes and new features :

• full virtual robot (the can create lists with the same name under different virtual host). This was asked for a long time by many users.
  
• Auth.conf file can be defined for each virtual robot.
• VERP (Variable Envelop Return Path) for bounce management
• huge update of translations (Added PO files for Greek, Dutch, Portuguese (Brazil) and Turkish), thanks to translators
• performance optimization for site using very large number of lists
• new parameter "max_month" for web_archives : the maximum number of month section in archive (automatically remove older)
• now only one copy of message for archive. No more archiving in expl/list/arc directory Mail archive command now uses web_archive. Old list parameter section for archive still in use for access control.
• Message topics : list messages can be tagged with topics. List owner defines a set of topics for the list. List members can select topics and only receive related messages. See documentation for more info.
  

All of this was tested for quite a long time in our server excepted message topics.

Special thanks to Gwenaelle who is now working at  Rennes 1 university. Many of the new features cames from her job.
