Version 0.9.7.1
 License:   GPL
 Updated:   June 7, 2001
 Source:   Source Available
Lots of little tweaks and things. Not that previous versions were that terribly unstable, but this version should be extra super solid. Portability has been improved quite a bit too, although that doesn't affect end users much. Be advised that the source will currently build only on net_server systems.

Version 0.9.7.0a-pl1
 License:   GPL
 Updated:   May 7, 2001
 Source:   Source Available
This is slrn 0.9.7.0a, patchlevel 1. Just two changes since 0.9.7.0a:
  • slrn does not crash in spool mode.
  • S-Lang versions older than 1.4.0 can be used; in this case, the set_utf8_conversion_table intrinsic is not available. If you choose to use old slang, however, you are weird ;-)

If you get the binary package libslang version 1.4.4 is already included.

Lots of bug fixes, lots of fixed overflows, lots of goodness for folks who use crazy slang macros.

This version has been compiled against the latest slang 1.4.4 and includes libslang.a

Version 0.9.6.4-pl4c
 License:   GPL
 Updated:   March 23, 2001
 Source:   Source Available
Thomas Schultz says: "I just uploaded yet another minor update for 0.9.6.4pl4. It mainlytakes care of (hopefully all of) the remaining possible buffer overflows and some minor bugs. I consider it a "release candidate" for 0.9.7.0, i.e. if no more bugs are reported, I will only touch documentation (and maybe autoconf) before the next stable release."

In other words, if you follow slrn religiously, grab this and test the poop out of it. If you're just a casual usenet user (like me, heh), you're not missing any major features that weren't in previous 0.9.6.4.xx releases.
