Release candidate files for 1.56.0 beta 1 are available at
http://boost.cowic.de/rc/

As always, the release managers would appreciate it if you download
the candidate of your choice and give building it a try. Please report
both success and failure, and anything else that is noteworthy.

This helps ensure the candidates build OK before we push them out to
SourceForge.

The files (and associated md5s) are:
	MD5 (boost-1_56_0b1_rc1.7z) = a23e0b5f503c82970c9754dbc8324256
	MD5 (boost-1_56_0b1_rc1.tar.bz2) = c6c8486dde4375896f302bdfe1fd3d2f
	MD5 (boost-1_56_0b1_rc1.tar.gz) = 1042e97a9f354b7187326fa1f9eb313e
	MD5 (boost-1_56_0b1_rc1.zip) = 984a70feac785d908d8f75ea9d8d2158

Since this is the first post-git release, we are expecting some teething pains with this release.
Please test extensively.

Thank you.
