Re: 1.2.18 beta, hotfix available

["D. Hugh Redelmeier" <..hidden..>]

[I don't normally top-post, but I think that it makes sense in this
case]

I don't see an announcement for 1.2.18 (or 1.2.17) on the front page.
I think that a version of this announcement would be useful for 1.2.18
on http://ledgersmb.org/

| 
| LedgerSMB Anouncements:
| ===========================
| 
| New beta Out.
| ----------------
| 
| LedgerSMB 1.2.18 beta is available for download on the Sourceforge
| download site.
| 
| The changelog for this release is:
| 
| Changelog for 1.2.18
| * Corrected httpd configuration bit. (Roderick Anderson)
| * COGS fix for return handling (Sadashiva and Chris T)
| * Cumulative tax handling fix for Quebec users (Jerome Oufella)
| 
| Those who are interested in testing this should download it from
| sourceforge and test it.
| 
| Hotfix available for COGS/Reversal issue
| ------------------------------------------------
| 
| The Cost of Goods Sold patch is considered a criticial issue because
| it affects data calculation in supported workflows.  Anyone who
| processes large numbers of returns is urged to install this patch
| immediately.  To install, please download the latest LedgerSMB/IS.pm
| from branches/1.2.  I am surprised that this issue slipped through
| both testing and the long production cycle without being noticed by us
| or anyone else, esp. given the attention COGS has received on 1.2.
| This bug was reported to us late last week and we have a bug fix
| available now.
| 
| Effect:  In certain circumstances, COGS adjustments on reversals
| (returns, voided invoices) are applied the wrong direction (positive
| instead of negative).  This occurs when the reversal is not a short
| sale.  In these cases, COGS will be reported high and inventory will
| be reported low.  The new IS.pm corrects this issue.
| 
| If anyone is worried about the accuracy of their numbers, please
| contact me and I will be happy to work with you to verify accuracy
| and, if the numbers are not correct, help you get the correct
| adjustments in place.
