+  <li><b>23 February 2004 -- BusyBox 1.0.0-pre8 released</b><p>
+
+    Here goes yet another BusyBox pre-release...  Please do not bother to send
+    in patches supplying new features at this time.  Only bug-fix patches will
+    be accepted.  If you have a cool new feature you would like to see
+    supported, or if you have an amazing new applet you would like to submit,
+    please wait and submit such things later.  We really want to get a release
+    out we can all be proud of.  We are still aiming to finish off the -pre
+    series in February and move on to the final 1.0.0 release...  So if you
+    spot any bugs, now would be an excellent time to send in a fix to the
+    busybox mailing list.  It would also be <b>very</b> helpful if people could
+    help review the BusyBox documentation and submit improvements.  It would be
+    especially helpful if people could check that the features supported by the
+    various applets match the features listed in the documentation.
+
+    <p>
+
+    The <a href="downloads/Changelog">changelog</a> has all the details.
+    And as usual you can <a href="downloads">download busybox here</a>.
+
+    <p>Have Fun!
+    <p>
