| 7 | |
| 8 | Bug reports sometimes get lost when posted to the mailing list. The |
| 9 | developers of BusyBox are busy people, and have only so much they can keep |
| 10 | in their brains at a time. In my case, I'm lucky if I can remember my own |
| 11 | name, much less a bug report posted last week... To prevent your bug report |
| 12 | from getting lost, if you find a bug in BusyBox, please use the |
| 13 | <a href="http://bugs.busybox.net/">shiny new Bug and Patch Tracking System</a> |
| 14 | to post all the gory details. |
| 15 | |
| 16 | <p> |
| 17 | |
| 18 | The same applies to patches... Regardless of whether your patch |
| 19 | is a bug fix or adds spify new features, please post your patch |
| 20 | to the Bug and Patch Tracking System to make certain it is |
| 21 | properly considered. |

| Eric Andersen | 9395ca4 | 2004-10-13 09:42:10 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 27 | When you take a careful look at nearly every embedded Linux device or |
| 28 | software distribution shipping today, you will find a copy of BusyBox. |
| 29 | With countless routers, set top boxes, wireless access points, PDAs, and |
| 30 | who knows what else, the future for Linux and BusyBox on embedded devices |
| 31 | is looking very bright. |
| 32 | |

| 35 | It is therefore with great satisfaction that I declare each and every |
| 36 | device already shipping with BusyBox is now officially out of date. |
| 37 | The highly anticipated release of BusyBox 1.00 has arrived! |
| 38 | |
| 39 | <p> |
| 40 | |
| 41 | Over three years in development, BusyBox 1.00 represents a tremendous |
| 42 | improvement over the old 0.60.x stable series. Now featuring a Linux |
| 43 | KernelConf based configuration system (as used by the Linux kernel), |
| 44 | Linux 2.6 kernel support, many many new applets, and the development |
| 45 | work and testing of thousands of people from around the world. |
| 46 | |
| 47 | <p> |
| 48 | |
| 49 | If you are already using BusyBox, you are strongly encouraged to upgrade to |
| 50 | BusyBox 1.00. If you are considering developing an embedded Linux device |
| 51 | or software distribution, you may wish to investigate if using BusyBox is |
| 52 | right for your application. If you need help getting started using |
| 53 | BusyBox, if you wish to donate to help cover expenses, or if you find a bug |
| 54 | and need help reporting it, you are invited to visit the <a |
| 55 | href="FAQ.html">BusyBox FAQ</a>. |

| 59 | As usual you can <a href="downloads">download busybox here</a>. |
