Simon ‘corecode’ Schubert has committed code from Steve O’Hara-Smith adding improvements to the bktr (TV input) driver, similar to those in FreeBSD, and adding support for newer cards.
If you haven’t guessed from his commits, Joerg Sonnenberger is bringing in the Citrus project from NetBSD, which handles internationalization.
Matthew Dillon has checked in a large update to msfbufs, produced by him and by Hiten Pandya.
Joerg Sonneberger has added ALTQ support from KAME, and removed PC98 support, though that probably affects noone.
The recent libc changes broke ssh, but it’s fixed already. Update and recompile libc to make it work again. Note that if you are following DragonFly_Stable, you won’t have had any of this trouble.
Liam J. Foy’s added a new battd daemon, for battery monitoring. He’s looking for feedback.
There’s been some big changes to libc, which ought not to hurt anything in the most current code, but watch out. (Commit message.)
David Xu is our newest committer, and has added in his 1:1 threading library, though with some caveats.
As promised, DragonFly_Stable is just now matched up with the newest DragonFly source. It’s a good time to update!
Joerg Sonnenberger has committed the first steps to using Xorg 6.8.1. It’s possible to install the port now, but there’s… issues.
Matthew Dillon’s committed initial work to brink in David Xu’s 1:1 threading work from FreeBSD. There;s a test utility for it, too.
Joerg Sonneberger has removed Perl. The /usr/bin/perl binary will still be sitting there, though.
Matthew Dillon’s committed some more changes for journaling, and posted a progress summary.
Jeffrey Hsu has replaced and improved the routing code, some of which dates back 30 years.
Look! Joerg Sonnenberger committed something big and it looks important and I have no clue what it is! Oh, I am so tired.
Jeffrey Hsu’s comitted more work to get ready for a parallelized routing setup. Interestingly, if you look at the commit message and count the lines added and subtracted (the ‘Changes’ column), there’s generally less code as a result.
Jeroen Ruigrok/asmodai has added binutils-2.15 and cvs 1.12.11 into the DragonFly source tree.
Jeroen Ruigrok/asmodai has added OpenSSL 0.9.7e to DragonFly. YONETANI Tomokazu also fixed a bug where each directory committed to the DragonFly CVS generated a separate CVS message – the OpenSSL addition generated something like 90 messages.
Matthew Dillon’s added the first parts of the journaling infrastructure, among other things, in his most recent VFS work.
