Version 2.8.6pre.1 of Lynx

Release Notes: This is a pre-release for 2.8.6 (the same as the development release 2.8.6dev.19). There are many bugfixes, most of which focus on the wide-character support. The color-style configuration has been enhanced, allowing it to simulate the older color configuration, so packagers need not choose between the two (color-style is now the default).

Other releases

Release Notes: Several bugfixes and improvements, such as eliminating a limit on the number of IP addresses passed to the parent process for the nsl-fork feature, showing ETA for FTP downloads as is done for HTTP downloads, and inferring MIME types for gopher servers. There are other fixes for the gnutls configuration, etc.
