Now can display binary files - (although I expect it to have trouble with displays where 8bit chars - don't have 1-to-1 char/glyph relationship). Regexp search is not buggy - anymore. Less does not read entire input up-front. Reads input - as it appears (yay!). Works rather nice as man pager. I recommend it - for general use now. - <li>IPv6: generic support is in place, many networking applets are - upgraded to be IPv6 capable.

Security fixes (/../ attacks). - <li>httpd: added -i (inetd), -f (foreground), support for - directory indexer CGI (example is included), bugfixes. - <li>telnetd: fixed/improved IPv6 support, inetd+standalone support, - other fixes.

One fix to tar so it can extract git-generated - tarballs (rather than barfing on the pax extensions). And a partridge - in a pear... Ahem.</p> - - <p>But wait, there's more! A passwd changing fix so an empty - gecos field doesn't trigger a false objection that the new passwd contains - the gecos field.

Lots of stuff changed, I need to work up a decent changelog - over the weekend.</p> - - <p>I'm still experimenting with how long is best for the development - cycle, and since we've got some largeish projects queued up I'm going to - try a longer one. Expect 1.3.0 in December. (Expect 1.2.1 any time - we fix enough bugs. :)</p> - - <p>Update: Here are <a href="http://busybox.net/downloads/busybox-1.2.0.fixes.patch">the first few bug fixes</a> that will go into 1.2.1.</p> - - <li><b>17 May 2006 -- BusyBox 1.1.3 (stable)</b> - <p><a href="http://busybox.net/downloads/busybox-1.1.3.tar.bz2">BusyBox - 1.1.3</a> is another bugfix release. It makes passwd use salt, fixes a - memory freeing bug in ls, fixes "build all sources at once" mode, makes - mount -a not abort on the first failure, fixes msh so ctrl-c doesn't kill - background processes, makes patch work with patch hunks that don't have a - timestamp, make less's text search a lot more robust (the old one could - segfault), and fixes readlink -f when built against uClibc.</p> - - <p>Expect 1.2.0 sometime next month, which won't be a bugfix release.</p> - - <li><b>10 April 2006 -- BusyBox 1.1.2 (stable)</b> - <p>You can now download <a href="http://busybox.net/downloads/busybox-1.1.2.tar.bz2">BusyBox 1.1.2</a>, a bug fix release consisting of 11 patches - backported from the development branch: Some build fixes, several fixes - for mount and nfsmount, a fix for insmod on big endian systems, a fix for - find -xdev, and a fix for comm. Check the file "changelog" in the tarball - for more info.</p> - - <p>The next new development release (1.2.0) is slated for June. A 1.1.3 - will be released before then if more bug fixes crop up. (The new plan is - to have a 1.x.0 new development release every 3 months, with 1.x.y stable - bugfix only releases based on that as appropriate.)</p> - - <li><b>27 March 2006 -- Software Freedom Law Center representing BusyBox and uClibc</b> - <p>One issue Erik Andersen wanted to resolve when handing off BusyBox - maintainership to Rob Landley was license enforcement. BusyBox and - uClibc's existing license enforcement efforts (pro-bono representation - by Erik's father's law firm, and the - <a href="http://www.busybox.net/shame.html">Hall of Shame</a>), haven't - scaled to match the popularity of the projects. So we put our heads - together and did the obvious thing: ask Pamela Jones of - <a href="http://www.groklaw.net">Groklaw</a> for suggestions. She - referred us to the fine folks at softwarefreedom.org.</p> - - <p>As a result, we're pleased to announce that the - <a href="http://www.softwarefreedom.org">Software Freedom Law Center</a> - has agreed to represent BusyBox and uClibc. We join a number of other - free and open source software projects (such as - <a href="http://lwn.net/Articles/141806/">X.org</a>, - <a href="http://lwn.net/Articles/135413/">Wine</a>, and - <a href="http://plone.org/foundation/newsitems/software-freedom-law-center-support/">Plone</a> - in being represented by a fairly cool bunch of lawyers, which is not a - phrase you get to use every day.</p> - - <li><b>22 March 2006 -- BusyBox 1.1.1</b> - <p>The new maintainer is Rob Landley, and the new release is <a href="http://busybox.net/downloads/busybox-1.1.1.tar.bz2">BusyBox 1.1.1</a>. Expect a "what's new" document in a few days. (Also, Erik and I have have another announcement pending...)</p> - <p>Update: Rather than put out an endless stream of 1.1.1.x releases, - the various small fixes have been collected together into a - <a href="http://busybox.net/downloads/busybox-1.1.1.fixes.patch">patch</a>, - and new fixes will be appended to that as needed. Expect 1.1.2 around - June.</p> - </li> - <li><b>11 January 2006 -- 1.1.0 is out</b> - <p>The new stable release is - <a href="http://www.busybox.net/downloads/busybox-1.1.0.tar.bz2">BusyBox - 1.1.0</a>. It has a number of improvements, including several new applets. - (It also has <a href="http://www.busybox.net/lists/busybox/2006-January/017733.html">a few rough spots</a>, - but we're trying out a "release early, release often" strategy to see how - that works. Expect 1.1.1 sometime in March.)</p> <li><b>Old News</b><p> <a href="/oldnews.html">Click here to read older news</a> |
