59 +          <p>
60 +            This release brings support for HP-UX (version 11.11), and
61 +            also fixes a few other minor issues.

70 +          <p>
71 +            This release adds a handful of new features to statgrab, and
72 +            adds support for FreeBSD 6.0-CURRENT. See the NEWS file in
73 +            the tarball for more details.

83 +            This release fixes a problem with the shared library

90 +            Version 0.10.1 of libstatgrab has been released.<br />
91 +            Download it from one of our <a href="/mirrors.xhtml">mirrors</a>.
92 +          </p>
93 +          <p>
94 +            This release consists almost entirely of bugfixes.
95 +            We've fixed compile-time errors for recent OpenBSD and
96 +            NetBSD platforms, and also a minor bug in statgrab
97 +            that broke network statistics on Solaris. New
98 +            variables have been added to the pkg-config file to
99 +            suggest ownership and permissions of binaries, and
100 +            we've added error reporting functions that store errno
101 +            values. There's also other minor fixes detailed in the
102 +            NEWS file.
103 +          </p>
104 +          <h3>
105 +            Thursday 20 May 2004

107 +          <p>
108 +            Version 0.10 of libstatgrab has been released.<br />
109 +            Download it from one of our <a href="/mirrors.xhtml">mirrors</a>.
110 +          </p>
111 +          <p>
112 +            This release concentrates heavily on standardising the names
113 +            of functions and structures throughout libstatgrab. Although
114 +            this will mean changes for existing programs, in the long run
115 +            we hope it'll make things both clearer and easier. However,
116 +            for those who still need the old functions we have provided
117 +            compatibility wrappers. See the NEWS file for details.
118 +          </p>
119 +          <p>
120 +            The other main change in this release is a new function to
121 +            provide full details on currently running processes. See the
122 +            documentation for sg_get_process_stats for details. Along with
123 +            this there are compare functions for use with qsort for sorting
124 +            process, network, and disk io statistics. We've also introduced
125 +            error reporting functions that allow calling applications to
126 +            see why libstatgrab has returned a failure. See sg_get_error.
127 +          </p>
128 +          <p>
129 +            Finally, we've added support for NetBSD 2.0 and tidied up lots
130 +            of areas of the code. This release does not include the python
131 +            bindings - they're now available as their own project called
132 +            <a href="/pystatgrab/">pystatgrab</a>.

133            The most significant change in this release is support for
134            NetBSD 1.6.x. Parts of the FreeBSD code have been
135            optimised, and an initialise function has been added to
136            allow programs to drop any extra privileges libstatgrab
137            needs. The list of known file systems has been increased,
138            and libstatgrab has been tested on even more platforms.
139            Finally, saidar has been tweaked to work even if it can't
140            get all the statistics.
