86 +            Please note that the API in 0.90 has changed, so
87 +            applications using libstatgrab will need to be updated to
88 +            support the changes.

90 +          <p>
91 +            There are a large number of changes in this version of
92 +            libstatgrab. Here is an overview:
93 +          </p>
94 +          <ul>
95 +            <li>Thread safety and reentrant functions.</li>
96 +            <li>API unification (every stats call is now able to
97 +                return multiple entries).</li>
98 +            <li>Complete rewrite of internal memory management (eases
99 +                future extensions).</li>
100 +            <li>Add experimental support for tracing using log4cplus.</li>
101 +            <li>Complete the ports for AIX, HP-UX and most of the
102 +                widely used BSD-based operating systems.</li>
103 +            <li>Complete the port for Darwin/MacOS X including basic
104 +                Mach.</li>
105 +            <li>Clean up the FreeBSD and Solaris implementations.</li>

108 +          <p>
109 +            This release is the result of a significant amount of work
110 +            by the newest member of the libstatgrab team - Jens
111 +            Rehsack. Welcome to the team Jens!

126 +          <p>
127 +            This release adds support for FreeBSD 9 and other systems
128 +            using utmpx. Also on FreeBSD it fixes an issue with large
129 +            quantities of memory and adds support for dynamically
130 +            getting a list of supported file systems. On Solaris ZFS
131 +            file systems will now be detected. And finally on Linux CPU
132 +            iowait information will be given where available.

149 +          <p>
150 +            This release fixes some minor build problems on Solaris
151 +            with Sun's compiler, and on the Debian "armel" port. Also
152 +            a minor fix to statgrab-make-mrtg-config on machines with
153 +            no swap, and added support for FreeBSD 8.

162 +          <p>
163 +            This release fixes a regression introduced on OpenBSD in
164 +            the last release - memory statistics were reported
165 +            incorrectly. Some other minor changes have been made, see
166 +            the NEWS file for more information.

175 +          <p>
176 +            This release contains mainly bugfixes - see the NEWS file
177 +            in the distribution for a full list. It also brings a new
178 +            feature in saidar: colour support, which can be activated
179 +            with the -c runtime flag.

189 +            This release mainly includes a bunch of bug fixes, but
190 +            also brings preliminary support for WIN32. We've also
191 +            added a few lines to the header file to make C++ linking
192 +            easier. Please see the NEWS file in the distribution for

203 +            This release has some new features, bug fixes, and a minor
204 +            API change. More details have been added to the file
205 +            system statistics, linux partition detection has been
206 +            reworked, and compile errors on Linux 2.6 have been fixed.
207 +            Support has been added for Solaris 10 and FreeBSD 7.
208 +            There are also manual pages for all the tools.

210 +          <p>
211 +            The duplex value in the network interface statistics has
212 +            changed name from "dup" to "duplex" - this breaks the API.
213 +            We plan to stabilise the API for a 1.0 release. As before,
214 +            the old name is available if SG_ENABLE_DEPRECATED is
215 +            defined.
