The release manager was ohertel.

This release of Tikiwiki will also close some of the final outstanding security issues that didn't make it into 1.8.2 and also carry on the bugfix and slight feature backporting from 1.9 aka HEAD branch.

This version was released 3/6/2004 by ohertel! Download your copy from SourceForge!

Note: I've increased the version numbers to 1.8.3 (CVS) - Damian
