Hi there,

I'm glad to announce the immediate availability of mc-4.8.28, a 
maintenance and bugfix release!

We have fixed number of bugs in various subsystems, most notably a 
long-standing problem of mc being slow when moving large file trees 
(thanks to Sergei Trofimovich!).

Other than that, we have finally completely removed half-broken, outdated 
and insecure SMB support. We recommend using one of the many current VFS 
solutions to work with Windows shares instead. For a detailed list of 
changes since the last release, please refer to the release notes. An 
upgrade is advised to benefit from these improvements!

Unfortunately, Apple M1 is still not supported directly, the necessary 
changes will hopefully make it in Fedora 36, which we will be able to use 
as a build system for the next release. Until then, please re-bootstrap 
the build system on Mac or use the following workaround:

    CFLAGS="-target arm64-apple-macos12" \
    ./configure \
      --host=aarch64-apple-darwin \
      --target=aarch64-apple-darwin \
      --build=aarch64-apple-darwin

As usual, thanks to Andrew Borodin, who was the main driving force behind 
this release, as well as all of our contributors, including translators.

Have fun with this new release!

Z.
