| 120 | <b>3 January 2002 -- Welcome to busybox.net!</b> | 124 | <b>6 March 2002 -- busybox.net now has mirrors!</b> |
| 121 | 125 | ||
| 122 | <p>Thanks to the generosity of a number of busybox | 126 | <p>Busybox.net is now much more available, thanks to |
| 123 | users, we have been able to purchase busybox.net | 127 | the fine folks at <a href= "http://i-netinnovations.com/">http://i-netinnovations.com/</a> |
| 124 | (which is where you are probably reading this). | 128 | who are providing hosting for busybox.net and |
| 125 | Right now, busybox.net and uclibc.org are both | 129 | uclibc.org. In addition, we now have two mirrors: |
| 126 | living on my home system (at the end of my DSL | 130 | <a href= "http://busybox.linuxmagic.com/">http://busybox.linuxmagic.com/</a> |
| 127 | line). I apologize for the abrupt move off of | 131 | in Canada and |
| 128 | busybox.lineo.com. Unfortunately, I no longer have | 132 | <a href= "http://busybox.csservers.de/">http://busybox.csservers.de/</a> |
| 129 | the access needed to keep that system updated (for | 133 | in Germany. I hope this makes things much more |
| 130 | example, you might notice the daily snapshots there | 134 | accessible for everyone! |
| 131 | stopped some time ago).</p> | ||
| 132 | |||
| 133 | <p>Busybox.net is currently hosted on my home | ||
| 134 | server, at the end of a DSL line. Unfortunately, | ||
| 135 | the load on them is quite heavy. To address this, | ||
| 136 | I'm trying to make arrangements to get busybox.net | ||
| 137 | co-located directly at an ISP. To assist in the | ||
| 138 | co-location effort, <a href= | ||
| 139 | "http://www.codepoet.org/~markw">Mark Whitley</a> | ||
| 140 | (author of busybox sed, cut, and grep) has donated | ||
| 141 | his <a href= | ||
| 142 | "http://www.netwinder.org/">NetWinder</a> computer | ||
| 143 | for hosting busybox.net and uclibc.org. Once this | ||
| 144 | system is co-located, the current speed problems | ||
| 145 | should be completely eliminated. Hopefully, too, | ||
| 146 | some of you will volunteer to set up some mirror | ||
| 147 | sites, to help to distribute the load a bit.</p> | ||

| 161 | --> | ||
| 162 | Since some people expressed concern over BusyBox | ||
| 163 | donations, let me assure you that no one is getting | ||
| 164 | rich here. All BusyBox and uClibc donations will be | ||
| 165 | spent paying for bandwidth and needed hardware | ||
| 166 | upgrades. For example, Mark's NetWinder currently | ||
| 167 | has just 64Meg of memory. As demonstrated when | ||
| 168 | google spidered the site the other day, 64 Megs in | ||
| 169 | not enough, so I'm going to be ordering 256Megs of | ||
| 170 | ram and a larger hard drive for the box today. So | ||
| 171 | far, donations received have been sufficient to | ||
| 172 | cover almost all expenses. In the future, we may | ||
| 173 | have co-location fees to worry about, but for now | ||
| 174 | we are ok. A <b>HUGE thank-you</b> goes out to | ||
| 175 | everyone that has contributed!<br> | ||

| 180 | <b>20 November 2001 -- BusyBox 0.60.2 released</b> | ||
| 181 | |||
| 182 | <p>We am very pleased to announce that the BusyBox | ||
| 183 | 0.60.2 (stable) is now released to the world. This | ||
| 184 | one is primarily a bugfix release for the stable | ||
| 185 | series, and it should take care of most everyone's | ||
| 186 | needs till we can get the nice new stuff we have | ||
| 187 | been working on in CVS ready to release (with the | ||
| 188 | wonderful new buildsystem). The biggest change in | ||
| 189 | this release (beyond bugfixes) is the fact that msh | ||
| 190 | (the minix shell) has been re-worked by Vladimir N. | ||
| 191 | Oleynik (vodz) and so it no longer crashes when | ||
| 192 | told to do complex things with backticks.</p> | ||
| 193 | |||
| 194 | <p>This release has been tested on x86, ARM, and | ||
| 195 | powerpc using glibc 2.2.4, libc5, and uClibc, so it | ||
| 196 | should work with just about any Linux system you | ||
| 197 | throw it at. See the <a href= | ||
| 198 | "downloads/Changelog">changelog</a> for <small>most | ||
| 199 | of</small> the details. The last release was | ||
| 200 | <em>very</em> solid for people, and this one should | ||
| 201 | be even better.</p> | ||
| 202 | |||
| 203 | <p>As usual BusyBox 0.60.2 can be downloaded from | ||
| 204 | <a href= | ||
| 205 | "downloads">http://www.busybox.net/downloads</a>.</p> | ||
| 206 | |||
