+ <li><b>20 July 2004 -- BusyBox 1.0.0-rc1 released</b><p>
+
+ Here goes release candidate 1... This fixes all (most?) of the problems
+ that have turned up since -pre10. In particular, loading and unloading of
+ kernel modules with 2.6.x kernels should be working much better.
+ <p>
+
+ I <b>really</b> want to get BusyBox 1.0.0 released soon and I see no real
+ reason why the 1.0.0 release shouldn't happen with things pretty much as
+ is. BusyBox is in good shape at the moment, and it works nicely for
+ everything that I'm doing with it. And from the reports I've been getting,
+ it works nicely for what most everyone else is doing with it as well.
+ There will eventually be a 1.0.1 anyway, so we might as well get on with
+ it. No, BusyBox is not perfect. No piece of software ever is. And while
+ there is still plenty that can be done to improve things, most of that work
+ is waiting till we can get a solid 1.0.0 release out the door....
+ <p>
+
+ Please do not bother to send in patches adding cool new features at this
+ time. Only bug-fix patches will be accepted. If you have submitted a
+ bug-fixing patch to the busybox mailing list and no one has emailed you
+ explaining why your patch was rejected, it is safe to say that your patch
+ has been lost or forgotten. That happens sometimes. Please re-submit your
+ bug-fixing patch to the BusyBox mailing list, and be sure to put "[PATCH]"
+ at the beginning of the email subject line!

+ On a less happy note, My 92 year old grandmother (my dad's mom) passed away
+ yesterday (June 19th). The funeral will be Thursday in a little town about
+ 2 hours south of my home. I've checked and there is absolutely no way I
+ could be back in time for the funeral if I attend <a
+ href="http://www.linuxsymposium.org/2004/">OLS</a> and give my presentation
+ as scheduled.
+ <p>
+ As such, it is with great reluctance and sadness that I have come
+ to the conclusion I will have to make my appologies and skip OLS
+ this year.

+ <li><b>13 April 2004 -- BusyBox 1.0.0-pre10 released</b><p>
+
+ Ok, I lied. It turns out that -pre9 will not be the final BusyBox
+ pre-release. With any luck however -pre10 will be, since I <b>really</b>
+ want to get BusyBox 1.0.0 released very soon. As usual, please do not
+ bother to send in patches adding cool new features at this time. Only
+ bug-fix patches will be accepted. It would also be <b>very</b> helpful if
+ people could continue to review the BusyBox documentation and submit
+ improvements.

+ <li><b>6 April 2004 -- BusyBox 1.0.0-pre9 released</b><p>
+
+ Here goes the final BusyBox pre-release... This is your last chance for
+ bug fixes. With luck this will be released as BusyBox 1.0.0 later this
+ week. Please do not bother to send in patches adding cool new features at
+ this time. Only bug-fix patches will be accepted. It would also be
+ <b>very</b> helpful if people could help review the BusyBox documentation
+ and submit improvements. I've spent a lot of time updating the
+ documentation to make it better match reality, but I could really use some
+ assistance in checking that the features supported by the various applets
+ match the features listed in the documentation.
+
+ <p>
+ I had hoped to get this released a month ago, but

+ <li><b>23 February 2004 -- BusyBox 1.0.0-pre8 released</b><p>
+
+ Here goes yet another BusyBox pre-release... Please do not bother to send
+ in patches supplying new features at this time. Only bug-fix patches will
+ be accepted. If you have a cool new feature you would like to see
+ supported, or if you have an amazing new applet you would like to submit,
+ please wait and submit such things later. We really want to get a release
+ out we can all be proud of. We are still aiming to finish off the -pre
+ series in February and move on to the final 1.0.0 release... So if you
+ spot any bugs, now would be an excellent time to send in a fix to the
+ busybox mailing list. It would also be <b>very</b> helpful if people could
+ help review the BusyBox documentation and submit improvements. It would be
+ especially helpful if people could check that the features supported by the
+ various applets match the features listed in the documentation.
