-    rework on tar, a new tiny implementation of bunzip2, a new
-    devfsd applet, support for 2.6.x kernel modules, updates to
-    the ash shell, sha1sum and md5sum have been merged into a

+    Here goes the next pre-release for the new BusyBox stable
+    series.  The most obvious thing in this release is a fix for
+    a terribly stupid bug in mount that prevented it from working
+    properly unless you specified the filesystem type.  This
+    release also fixes a few compile problems, updates udhcp,
+    fixes a silly bug in fdisk, fixes ifup/ifdown to behave like
+    the Debian version, updates devfsd, updates the 2.6.x
+    modutils support, add a new 'rx' applet, removes the obsolete
+    'loadacm' applet, fixes a few tar bugs, fixes a sed bug, and
+    a few other odd fixes.

-    And of course, if you are reading this, you might have noticed
-    the busybox website has been completely reworked.  Hopefully
-    things are now somewhat easier to navigate...  If you see any

-    free to send an email to the busybox mailing list.

-    The point of the "-preX" versions is to get a larger group of

-    fixed prior to the final 1.0.0 release.  The main feature

-    list before the final BusyBox 1.0.0 release is sorting out the
-    modutils issues.  For the new 2.6.x kernels, we already have
-    patches adding insmod and rmmod support and those need to be
-    integrated.  For 2.4.x kernels, for which busybox only supports
-    a limited number of architectures, we may want to invest a bit
-    more work before we cut 1.0.0.  Or we may just leave 2.4.x
-    module loading alone.

-
-    Here goes another pre release for the new BusyBox stable
-    series.  The last prerelease (pre1) was given quite a lot of
-    testing (thanks everyone!) which has helped turn up a number of
-    bugs, and these problems have now been fixed.
-
-    <p>
-
-    Highlights of -pre2 include updating the 'ash' shell to sync up
-    with the Debian 'dash' shell, a new 'hdparm' applet was added,
-    init again supports pivot_root,  The 'reboot' 'halt' and
-    'poweroff' applets can now be used without using busybox init.
-    an ifconfig buffer overflow was fixed, losetup now allows
-    read-write loop devices, uClinux daemon support was added, the
-    'watchdog', 'fdisk', and 'kill' applets were rewritten, there were
-    tons of doc updates, and there were many other bugs fixed.
-    <p>
-
-    If you have submitted a patch and it is not included in this
-    release and Erik has not emailed you explaining why your patch
-    was rejected, it is safe to say that he has lost your patch.

-    then...
