[Qemu-stable] [ANNOUNCE] QEMU 1.2.2 Stable released

[mdroth]

Hi everyone,

I am pleased to announce that the QEMU v1.2.2 stable release is now
available at:

http://wiki.qemu.org/download/qemu-1.2.2.tar.bz2

The official stable-1.2 repository has also been updated to v1.2.2:

http://git.qemu.org/?p=qemu-stable-1.2.git;a=summary

This release includes 43 build/bug fixes.

This is the last planned stable release for the QEMU 1.2 series, as
I'll be moving on to supporting the QEMU 1.3 series. Any parties
interested in maintaining the 1.2 series further however are free to
contact myself or Anthony (on CC) to volunteer.

Thanks!
