First distribution shipping with mutt-ng

GRML 0.3 is the first distribution to ship mutt-ng. GRML is a live CD based on Knoppix and Debian, targeted at system administrators and text tool users. It's definitely worth a try, and I always have a copy of it with me with my work notebook (although that's still an older version w/o mutt-ng :-/). The lead developer of GRML, Michael Prokop is also the one who contributed the wonderful grml-muttng script that dramatically simplifies the creation of new mutt-ng configuration files especially for new users.

mutt-ng on Gentoo

As gass reported in the comments, there's an ebuild available to build mutt-ng on Gentoo.

This is awesome. The project doesn't even exist longer than a few weeks, and so many contributed packages. This is how free software/open source is supposed to work.
