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.

18 The same applies to patches... Regardless of whether your patch
Eric Andersenbc321652005-01-14 17:08:13 +000019 is a bug fix or adds spiffy new features, please post your patch
Eric Andersen7d1b3d82005-01-13 17:15:34 +000020 to the Bug and Patch Tracking System to make certain it is
21 properly considered.

Eric Andersen9395ca42004-10-13 09:42:10 +000027 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.

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36 device already shipping with BusyBox is now officially out of date.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>

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.

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
