+
+        For this release I have bumped the version number to 0.60.0.  This
+        reflects the fact that this release is intended to form a new stable
+        BusyBox release series.  If you need to rely on a stable version of
+        BusyBox, you should plan on using the stable 0.60.x series.  If bugs
+        show up then I will release 0.60.1, then 0.60.2, etc...  This is also
+        intended to deal with the fact that the BusyBox build system will be
+        getting a major overhaul for the next release and I don't want that to
+        break products that people are shipping.  To avoid that, the new build
+        system will be released as part of a new BusyBox development series
+        that will have some not-yet-decided-on odd version number.  Once things
+        stabablize and the new build system is working for everyone, then I
+        will release that as a new stable release series.

+    <li> <b>2 August 2001 -- BusyBox 0.60.0 released</b>
+    <br>
+             I am very pleased to announce the immediate availability of
+             BusyBox 0.60.0.  I have personally tested this release with libc5, glibc,
+             and <a href="http://cvs.uclinux.org/uClibc.html">uClibc</a> on
+             x86, ARM, and powerpc using linux 2.2 and 2.4, and I know a number
+             of people using it on everything from ia64 to m68k with great success.
+             Everything seems to be working very nicely now, so getting a nice
+             stable bug-free(tm) release out seems to be in order.   This releases fixes
+             a memory leak in syslogd, a number of bugs in the ash and msh shells, and
+             cleans up a number of things.
+             
+             <p>
+
+             Those wanting an easy way to test the 0.60.0 release with uClibc can 
+             use <a href="http://user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net/">User-Mode Linux</a>
+             to give it a try by downloading and compiling 
+             <a href="ftp://oss.lineo.com/buildroot.tar.gz">buildroot.tar.gz</a>.
+             You don't have to be root or reboot your machine to run test this way.

+             is <em>not</em> 0.53, because I bumped the version number up a
