+ <p> <li> <b>13 December 2000 -- BusyBox 0.48 released</b>
+ <br>
+
+ This release fixes lots and lots of bugs. This has had some very
+ rigorous testing, and looks very, very clean. The usual tar
+ update of course: tar no longer breaks hardlinks, tar -xzf is
+ optionally supported, and the LRP folks will be pleased to know
+ that 'tar -X' and 'tar --exclude' are both now in. Applets are
+ now looked up using a binary search makeing lash (the busybox
+ shell) much faster. For the new debian-installer (for Debian
+ woody) a .udeb can now be generated.
+ <p>
+ The curious can get a list of some of the more interesting chages by reading
+ the <a href="ftp://oss.lineo.com/busybox/Changelog">changelog</a>.
+ <p>
+ Many thanks go out to the many many people that have contributed to
+ this release, especially Matt Kraai, Larry Doolittle, and Kent Robotti.
