-<b>Wednesday 22 October 2003</b><br><br>
-Version 0.7 of libstatgrab has been released.<br>
-Download it
-<a href="http://www.mirror.ac.uk/sites/ftp.i-scream.org/pub/i-scream/libstatgrab/libstatgrab-0.7.tar.gz">here</a>.
-The most significant change in this release is support for NetBSD
-1.6.x. Parts of the FreeBSD code have been optimised, and an initialise
-function has been added to allow programs to drop any extra privileges
-libstatgrab needs. The list of known file systems has been increased,
-and libstatgrab has been tested on even more platforms. Finally,
-saidar has been tweaked to work even if it can't get all the
-statistics.
-</p>
-
-<p>
-<b>Saturday 18 October 2003</b><br><br>
-Version 0.6.1 of libstatgrab has been released.<br>
-Download it
-<a href="http://www.mirror.ac.uk/sites/ftp.i-scream.org/pub/i-scream/libstatgrab/libstatgrab-0.6.1.tar.gz">here</a>.
-This release brings support for FreeBSD 5 on sparc 64, and some
-bugfixes in FreeBSD memory statistics. Also, some fixes to saidar,
-and statgrab.
-</p>
-
-<p>
-<b>Friday 10 October 2003</b><br><br>

-
-<a name="what"><h2>What is libstatgrab?</h2></a>
-
-<p>
-libstatgrab is a library that provides cross platform access to
-statistics about the system on which it's run. It's written in C and
-presents a selection of useful interfaces which can be used to access
-key system statistics. The current list of statistics includes CPU
-usage, memory utilisation, disk usage, process counts, network
-traffic, disk I/O, and more.
-</p>
-
-<p>
-The current list of platforms is Solaris 2.x, Linux 2.4, FreeBSD
-4.x/5.x, and NetBSD 1.6.x. The aim is to extend this to include as many
-operating systems as possible.
-</p>
-
-<p>
-The package also includes a couple of useful tools. The first,
-<a href="#screenshot">saidar</a>, provides a curses-based interface to
-viewing the current state of the system. The second, statgrab, gives a
-sysctl-style interface to the statistics gathered by libstatgrab. This
-extends the use of libstatgrab to people writing scripts or anything
-else that can't easily make C function calls. Included with statgrab is
-a script to generate an <a href="http://www.mrtg.org">MRTG</a>
-configuration file to use statgrab.
-</p>
-
-<a name="download"><h2>Downloading</h2></a>
-
-<p>
-The latest version of libstatgrab can be downloaded from our
-primary download
-<a href="http://www.mirror.ac.uk/sites/ftp.i-scream.org/pub/i-scream/libstatgrab">mirror</a>.
-All downloads are pgp signed using our <a href="/pgpkey.shtml">PGP Key</a>.
-</p>
-
-<p>
-For installation instructions see the README and INSTALL files
-contained within the archive. If you're using
-<a href="http://www.freebsd.org">FreeBSD</a> you can make use of the
-<a href="http://www.freshports.org/devel/libstatgrab">devel/libstatgrab</a>
-port to install libstatgrab for you.
-</p>
-
-<a name="documentation"><h2>Documentation</h2></a>
-
-<p>
-The only online documentation we have at the moment is the manual
-pages converted in to HTML format. It's probably best to start with
-the overview manual page:
-
-<ul>
-<li><a href="statgrab.html">statgrab(3)</a></li>
-</ul>
-</p>
-
-<p>
-Then we have the manual pages for each function:
-
-<ul>
-<li><a href="cpu_percent_usage.html">cpu_percent_usage(3)</a></li>
-<li><a href="get_diskio_stats.html">get_diskio_stats(3)</a></li>

+ <h3>
+ Monday 8 January 2007
+ </h3>
+ <p>
+ Version 0.14 of libstatgrab has been released.<br />
+ Download it from one of our <a href="/mirrors.xhtml">mirrors</a>.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ This release contains mainly bugfixes - see the NEWS file
+ for a full list. The only new feature is colour support in
+ saidar which can be activated with the -c runtime flag.
+ </p>
+ <h3>
+ Monday 20 March 2006
+ </h3>
+ <p>
+ Version 0.13 of libstatgrab has been released.<br />
+ Download it from one of our <a href="/mirrors.xhtml">mirrors</a>.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ This release mainly includes a bunch of bug fixes, but
+ also brings preliminary support for WIN32. We've also
+ added a few lines to the header file to make C++ linking
+ easier. Please see the NEWS file in the distribution for
+ full details.
+ </p>
+ <h3>
+ Sunday 31 July 2005
+ </h3>
+ <p>
+ Version 0.12 of libstatgrab has been released.<br />
+ Download it from one of our <a href="/mirrors.xhtml">mirrors</a>.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ This release has some new features, bug fixes, and a minor
+ API change. More details have been added to the file
+ system statistics, linux partition detection has been
+ reworked, and compile errors on Linux 2.6 have been fixed.
+ Support has been added for Solaris 10 and FreeBSD 7.
+ There are also manual pages for all the tools.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ The duplex value in the network interface statistics has
+ changed name from "dup" to "duplex" - this breaks the API.
+ We plan to stabilise the API for a 1.0 release. As before,
+ the old name is available if SG_ENABLE_DEPRECATED is
+ defined.
+ </p>
+ <h3>
+ Tuesday 26 April 2005
+ </h3>
+ <p>
+ Official libstatgrab packages for Debian now
+ <a href="http://packages.debian.org/unstable/source/libstatgrab">available</a>.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ Thanks to the work of
+ <a href="mailto:fenio@debian.org">Bartosz Fenski</a>
+ libstatgrab is now available on debian. This replaces our
+ unofficial debian packages which will no longer be
+ updated.
+ </p>
+ <h3>
+ Thursday 3 March 2005
+ </h3>
+ <p>
+ Version 0.11.1 of libstatgrab has been released.<br />
+ Download it from one of our <a href="/mirrors.xhtml">mirrors</a>.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ This release fixes a handful of minor bugs. Duplex
+ settings were reported incorrectly on linux (half and
+ full duplex were swapped), saidar displayed negative
+ filesystem stats incorrectly, and NFS filesystems were
+ ignored. These have all been fixed.
+ </p>
+ <h3>
+ Friday 12 November 2004
+ </h3>
+ <p>
+ Version 0.11 of libstatgrab has been released.<br />
+ Download it from one of our <a href="/mirrors.xhtml">mirrors</a>.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ This release brings support for HP-UX (version 11.11), and
+ also fixes a few other minor issues.
+ </p>
+ <h3>
+ Wednesday 25 August 2004
+ </h3>
+ <p>
+ Version 0.10.3 of libstatgrab has been released.<br />
+ Download it from one of our <a href="/mirrors.xhtml">mirrors</a>.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ This release adds a handful of new features to statgrab, and
+ adds support for FreeBSD 6.0-CURRENT. See the NEWS file in
+ the tarball for more details.
+ </p>
+ <h3>
+ Tuesday 27 July 2004
+ </h3>
+ <p>
+ Version 0.10.2 of libstatgrab has been released.<br />
+ Download it from one of our <a href="/mirrors.xhtml">mirrors</a>.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ This release fixes a problem with the shared library
+ version number in the last release.
+ </p>
+ <h3>
+ Monday 26 July 2004
+ </h3>
+ <p>
+ Version 0.10.1 of libstatgrab has been released.<br />
+ Download it from one of our <a href="/mirrors.xhtml">mirrors</a>.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ This release consists almost entirely of bugfixes.
+ We've fixed compile-time errors for recent OpenBSD and
+ NetBSD platforms, and also a minor bug in statgrab
+ that broke network statistics on Solaris. New
+ variables have been added to the pkg-config file to
+ suggest ownership and permissions of binaries, and
+ we've added error reporting functions that store errno
+ values. There's also other minor fixes detailed in the
+ NEWS file.
+ </p>
+ <h3>
+ Thursday 20 May 2004
+ </h3>
+ <p>
+ Version 0.10 of libstatgrab has been released.<br />
+ Download it from one of our <a href="/mirrors.xhtml">mirrors</a>.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ This release concentrates heavily on standardising the names
+ of functions and structures throughout libstatgrab. Although
+ this will mean changes for existing programs, in the long run
+ we hope it'll make things both clearer and easier. However,
+ for those who still need the old functions we have provided
+ compatibility wrappers. See the NEWS file for details.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ The other main change in this release is a new function to
+ provide full details on currently running processes. See the
+ documentation for sg_get_process_stats for details. Along with
+ this there are compare functions for use with qsort for sorting
+ process, network, and disk io statistics. We've also introduced
+ error reporting functions that allow calling applications to
+ see why libstatgrab has returned a failure. See sg_get_error.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ Finally, we've added support for NetBSD 2.0 and tidied up lots
+ of areas of the code. This release does not include the python
+ bindings - they're now available as their own project called
+ <a href="/pystatgrab/">pystatgrab</a>.
+ </p>
