<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.

<p> <li> <b>11 July 2000 -- BusyBox 0.46 released</b>
<br>
This release fixes several bugs (including a ugly bug in tar,
and fixes for NFSv3 mount support). Added a dumpkmap to allow
people to dump a binary keymaps for use with 'loadkmap', and a
completely reworked 'grep' and 'sed' which should behave better.
BusyBox shell can now also be used as a login shell.

for complete details.
<p> <li> <b>21 June 2000 -- BusyBox 0.45 released</b>
<br>
This release has been slow in coming, but is very solid at this
point. BusyBox now supports libc5 as well as GNU libc. This
release provides the following new apps: cut, tr, insmod, ar,
mktemp, setkeycodes, md5sum, uuencode, uudecode, which, and
telnet. There are bug fixes for just about every app as well (see
the <a href="ftp://oss.lineo.com/busybox/Changelog">changelog</a> for
details).
<p>
Also, some exciting infrastructure news! Busybox now has its own
<a href="http://opensource.lineo.com/lists/busybox/">mailing list</a>,
publically browsable
<a href="http://opensource.lineo.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb/busybox/">CVS tree</a>,
anonymous
<a href="http://opensource.lineo.com/cvs_anon.html">CVS access</a>, and
for those that are actively contributing there is even
<a href="http://opensource.lineo.com/cvs_write.html">CVS write access</a>.
I think this will be a huge help to the ongoing development of BusyBox.
<p>
Also, for the curious, there is no 0.44 release. Somehow 0.44 got announced
a few weeks ago prior to its actually being released. To avoid any confusion
we are just skipping 0.44.

Many thanks go out to the many people that have contributed to this release
of BusyBox (esp. Pavel Roskin)!

Turns out that there was still a bug in busybox syslogd.
