<li><b>31 October 2005 -- 1.1.0-pre1</b>
|
|
<p>The development branch of busybox is stable enough for wider testing, so
|
|
you can now download (temporarly location:
|
|
<a href="http://www.busybox.net/downloads/busybox-1.1.0-pre1.tar.bz2">tarball</a>
|
|
<a href="http://www.busybox.net/downloads/BusyBox.html">docs</a>)
|
|
the first prerelease of 1.1.0. This prerelease includes a lot of new
|
|
functionality: new applets, new features, and extensive rewrites of
|
|
several existing applets. This prerelease should be noticeably more
|
|
<a href="http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/">standards
|
|
compliant</a> than earlier versions of busybox, although we're
|
|
still working out the <a href="http://bugs.busybox.net">bugs</a>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<li><b>16 August 2005 -- 1.01 is out</b>
|
|
|
|
<p>A new stable release (<a href="http://www.busybox.net/downloads/busybox-1.01.tar.bz2">BusyBox
|
|
1.01</a>) is now available for download, containing over a hundred
|
|
<a href="http://www.busybox.net/lists/busybox/2005-August/015424.html">small
|
|
fixes</a> that have cropped up since the 1.00 release.</p>

<li><b>13 January 2005 -- Bug and Patch Tracking</b><p>
|
|
|
|
Bug reports sometimes get lost when posted to the mailing list. The
|
|
developers of BusyBox are busy people, and have only so much they can keep
|
|
in their brains at a time. In my case, I'm lucky if I can remember my own
|
|
name, much less a bug report posted last week... To prevent your bug report
|
|
from getting lost, if you find a bug in BusyBox, please use the
|
|
<a href="http://bugs.busybox.net/">shiny new Bug and Patch Tracking System</a>
|
|
to post all the gory details.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
The same applies to patches... Regardless of whether your patch
|
|
is a bug fix or adds spiffy new features, please post your patch
|
|
to the Bug and Patch Tracking System to make certain it is
|
|
properly considered.

<li><b>13 October 2004 -- BusyBox 1.00 released</b><p>
|
|
|
|
When you take a careful look at nearly every embedded Linux device or
|
|
software distribution shipping today, you will find a copy of BusyBox.
|
|
With countless routers, set top boxes, wireless access points, PDAs, and
|
|
who knows what else, the future for Linux and BusyBox on embedded devices
|
|
is looking very bright.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
It is therefore with great satisfaction that I declare each and every
|
|
device already shipping with BusyBox is now officially out of date.
|
|
The highly anticipated release of BusyBox 1.00 has arrived!
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
Over three years in development, BusyBox 1.00 represents a tremendous
|
|
improvement over the old 0.60.x stable series. Now featuring a Linux
|
|
KernelConf based configuration system (as used by the Linux kernel),
|
|
Linux 2.6 kernel support, many many new applets, and the development
|
|
work and testing of thousands of people from around the world.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
If you are already using BusyBox, you are strongly encouraged to upgrade to
|
|
BusyBox 1.00. If you are considering developing an embedded Linux device
|
|
or software distribution, you may wish to investigate if using BusyBox is
|
|
right for your application. If you need help getting started using
|
|
BusyBox, if you wish to donate to help cover expenses, or if you find a bug
|
|
and need help reporting it, you are invited to visit the <a
|
|
href="FAQ.html">BusyBox FAQ</a>.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
As usual you can <a href="downloads">download busybox here</a>.
|
|
|
|
<p>Have Fun!
