Sunday, 20th June 2010
Standardized the copyright notices on all auxiliary files (including this
one!) according to the example set by the GNU hello program. Removed
immutable end texts from the texinfo document. These changes are required
for Debianization. Released as version 1.0.6.
Sunday, 13th June 2010
Made some technical changes to the build system to aid Debianization.
Released without announcement as version 1.0.5.
The GIT repository has been completely re-hashed, and now represents a
complete and faithful history of the package's development since its
inception.
Thursday, 21st February 2008
The source code is now held in a GIT repository, at
git://git.savannah.gnu.org/mcron.git.
Released version 1.0.4, under the new GPLv3 license, after some prodding by
Karl Berry.
Sunday, 16th April 2006
Released version 1.0.3. Incorporated many coding suggestions by Sergey
Poznyakoff, which makes the program work with daylight savings time shifts,
fixes a bug in parsing Vixie-style input files, allows a user the
opportunity to correct a crontab entry instead of just wiping out the file.
Made it work with Guile 1.8. Updated the manual with GFDL and some minor
suggestions from Karl Berry.
Monday, 2nd January 2006
Released version 1.0.2.
Saturday, 15th May 2004
Set up Savannah and the mailing lists so that we are now homed properly at
gnu.org. Released version 1.0.1 to reflect this, with CVS tag release_1-0-1
(no branch). Hopefully we will now get some feedback!
Friday, 12th December 2003
Released version 1.0.0 through rdmp.org. No CVS tag has been created.
Tuesday, 2nd December 2003
Mcron is now officially a GNU program. Unfortunately Savannah, the
development environment, has been mauled so an immediate GNU release is not
likely. No CVS tag has been created.
Tuesday, 5th August 2003
Released version 0.99.3. The CVS tag will be release_0-99-3 (no branch).
Sunday, 3rd August 2003
Broken the code into modules (which is not the same as saying the code is
broken ;-) ).
Sunday, 20th July 2003
Released version 0.99.2. (Now fully functional). The CVS tag is
release_0-99-2 (no branch).
Sunday, 20th July 2003
It has been a long and painful journey, but we have at last worked out how
to work around all the faults in Guile (an implementation with no threads
and no UNIX signals!). The code is now really 100% Vixie compatible.
Saturday, 5th July 2003
Released version 0.99.1, with installation of cron and crontab disabled by
default (suspect problems with Guile internals are preventing these from
working properly). The CVS tag is release_0-99-1 (no branch has been
created for it).
Friday, 4th July 2003
We have been accepted as a Savannah project. A CVS repository and web home
page have been created. We're still waiting for acceptance as a GNU
project.
