- <b>3 January 2002 -- Welcome to busybox.net!</b>
-
- <p>Thanks to the generosity of a number of busybox
- users, we have been able to purchase busybox.net
- (which is where you are probably reading this).
- Right now, busybox.net and uclibc.org are both
- living on my home system (at the end of my DSL
- line). I apologize for the abrupt move off of
- busybox.lineo.com. Unfortunately, I no longer have
- the access needed to keep that system updated (for
- example, you might notice the daily snapshots there
- stopped some time ago).</p>
-
- <p>Busybox.net is currently hosted on my home
- server, at the end of a DSL line. Unfortunately,
- the load on them is quite heavy. To address this,
- I'm trying to make arrangements to get busybox.net
- co-located directly at an ISP. To assist in the
- co-location effort, <a href=
- "http://www.codepoet.org/~markw">Mark Whitley</a>
- (author of busybox sed, cut, and grep) has donated
- his <a href=
- "http://www.netwinder.org/">NetWinder</a> computer
- for hosting busybox.net and uclibc.org. Once this
- system is co-located, the current speed problems
- should be completely eliminated. Hopefully, too,
- some of you will volunteer to set up some mirror
- sites, to help to distribute the load a bit.</p>

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

+ <b>6 March 2002 -- busybox.net now has mirrors!</b>
+
+ <p>Busybox.net is now much more available, thanks to
+ the fine folks at <a href= "http://i-netinnovations.com/">http://i-netinnovations.com/</a>
+ who are providing hosting for busybox.net and
+ uclibc.org. In addition, we now have two mirrors:
+ <a href= "http://busybox.linuxmagic.com/">http://busybox.linuxmagic.com/</a>
+ in Canada and
+ <a href= "http://busybox.csservers.de/">http://busybox.csservers.de/</a>
+ in Germany. I hope this makes things much more
+ accessible for everyone!

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