Weekly release for 7-11 May 2012

Security fixes
- OpenSSL 1.0.1c (advisory)
Removed packages
- image/library/libjpeg
- image/library/libpng
- image/library/libtiff
- library/print/cups-libs
- library/print/lcms2
- print/cups
- print/filter/ghostscript
- system/library/fontconfig
- system/library/freetype-2
  - Furthering our minimalism goal, we have removed dependencies on Ghostscript and CUPS. This breaks CUPS support in smbd (spool). If we decide we want to enable that, we should only require the cups header to build and should consider packaging that in illumos-gate
  - Note that these packages are not defined in the “entire” incorporation so typical installs would not have any of these packages. They would only have been installed if you were building the OS‚‘
New packages
- system/install/kayak : Kayak network installer system
- system/install/kayak-kernel : Kayak boot kernel and miniroot

Weekly release for 16-20 April 2012
