<h3>Sunday 21 March 2004</h3> |

<p> |
| 43 |

pystatgrab, a new package containing a set of Python bindings, |
| 44 |
> |
has been released. Check out it's <a href="/pystatgrab/">project |
| 45 |

page</a>. |

<h3>Wednesday 10 March 2004</h3> |

Version 0.9 of libstatgrab has been released.<br/> |
| 51 |
|
Download it |
| 52 |
+ |
<a href="http://www.mirror.ac.uk/sites/ftp.i-scream.org/pub/i-scream/libstatgrab/libstatgrab-0.9.tar.gz">here</a>. |
| 53 |
+ |
</p> |
| 54 |
+ |
<p> |
| 55 |
+ |
This release brings new features and new platforms. We've added |
| 56 |
+ |
information about network interfaces (duplex, speed, etc) along |
| 57 |
+ |
with further statistics such as i/o packets, i/o errors, and |
| 58 |
+ |
collisions. Support has also been added for OpenBSD and DragonFly |
| 59 |
+ |
BSD. Finally some work has been done to reduce the platforms on |
| 60 |
+ |
which libstatgrab needs elevated privileges. See the NEWS file for |
| 61 |
+ |
more information. |

<h3>Wednesday 11 February 2004</h3> |
| 65 |
+ |
<p> |
| 66 |
+ |
Version 0.8.2 of libstatgrab has been released.<br/> |
| 67 |
+ |
Download it |
| 68 |
+ |
<a href="http://www.mirror.ac.uk/sites/ftp.i-scream.org/pub/i-scream/libstatgrab/libstatgrab-0.8.2.tar.gz">here</a>. |
| 69 |
+ |
</p> |
| 70 |
+ |
<p> |
| 71 |
+ |
The main focus of this release is adding support for Solaris 6. |
| 72 |
+ |
We've also added Python bindings so you can use libstatgrab directly |
| 73 |
+ |
from Python (see the extras directory). Finally, we've tidied up a |
| 74 |
+ |
few bits of the code. |
| 75 |
+ |
</p> |

<h3>Wednesday 21 January 2004</h3> |
| 78 |
+ |
<p> |
| 79 |
+ |
Version 0.8.1 of libstatgrab has been released.<br/> |
| 80 |
+ |
Download it |
| 81 |
+ |
<a href="http://www.mirror.ac.uk/sites/ftp.i-scream.org/pub/i-scream/libstatgrab/libstatgrab-0.8.1.tar.gz">here</a>. |
| 82 |
+ |
</p> |
| 83 |
+ |
<p> |
| 84 |
+ |
This release primarily fixes bugs. On Linux a file descriptor leak was |
| 85 |
+ |
fixed. On Solaris some significant speed increases were made to the |
| 86 |
+ |
disk mapping code, along with some bug fixes for Solaris 7 platforms. |
| 87 |
+ |
Also, the library part of libstatgrab (but not the tools) is now |
| 88 |
+ |
released under the LGPL instead of the GPL. |
| 89 |

<h3>Tuesday 6 January 2004</h3> |
| 92 |
+ |
<p> |
| 93 |
+ |
Version 0.8 of libstatgrab has been released.<br/> |
| 94 |
+ |
Download it |
| 95 |
+ |
<a href="http://www.mirror.ac.uk/sites/ftp.i-scream.org/pub/i-scream/libstatgrab/libstatgrab-0.8.tar.gz">here</a>. |
| 96 |
+ |
</p> |
| 97 |
+ |
<p> |
| 98 |
+ |
This release brings support for Linux 2.6 and partial support for Cygwin. |
| 99 |
+ |
On Solaris libstatgrab now returns disk names using cNtNdNsN names rather |
| 100 |
+ |
than the older sdN names. There are also a bunch of fixes and optimisations |
| 101 |
+ |
in various places. Finally, a new function has been added to make it |
| 102 |
+ |
quicker to drop any elevated privileges libstatgrab may require on some |
| 103 |
+ |
operating systems. |
| 104 |
+ |
</p> |

<h3>Wednesday 22 October 2003</h3> |
| 107 |
+ |
<p> |
| 108 |
+ |
Version 0.7 of libstatgrab has been released.<br/> |
| 109 |
+ |
Download it |
| 110 |

<a href="http://www.mirror.ac.uk/sites/ftp.i-scream.org/pub/i-scream/libstatgrab/libstatgrab-0.7.tar.gz">here</a>. |
| 111 |
+ |
</p> |
| 112 |
+ |
<p> |
| 113 |
|
The most significant change in this release is support for NetBSD |
| 114 |
|
1.6.x. Parts of the FreeBSD code have been optimised, and an initialise |
| 115 |
|
function has been added to allow programs to drop any extra privileges |
| 116 |
< |
libstatgrab needs on BSD platforms. The list of known file systems has |
| 117 |
< |
been increased, and libstatgrab has been tested on even more platforms. |
| 118 |
< |
Finally, saidar has been tweaked to work even if it can't get all the |
| 116 |
> |
libstatgrab needs. The list of known file systems has been increased, |
| 117 |
> |
and libstatgrab has been tested on even more platforms. Finally, |
| 118 |

saidar has been tweaked to work even if it can't get all the |
| 119 |
|
statistics. |

The only online documentation we have at the moment is the manual |
| 215 |
|
pages converted in to HTML format. It's probably best to start with |
| 216 |
|
the overview manual page: |
