<li> <b>20 June 2002, uClibc 0.9.12 Released</b>
<br>
+ o Add full shared library support for mips, thanks
+ to a lot of hard work from Steven J. Hill
+ o i960 architecture support, thanks to Martin Proulx
+ o Fixes shared library support for powerpc
+ o Fixes for mmu-less systems
+ o Much improved thread locking and reentrance.
+ o More gcc wrapper updates. XFree86 really does link
+ this time around. It still didn't last time.
+ o Libcrypt now passes conformance tests
+ o Nearly complete locale supporti thanks to a lot
+ of hard work by Manuel Novoa III. This stuff is
+ _way_ smaller than glibc's
+ o Completely new time handling functions
+ o Lots of other bug fixes and cleanups.
CodePoet Consulting is pleased to announce the immediate availability of
uClibc 0.9.12. This release adds an i960 port, an initial alpha port,
- fullly working shared library support for mips, fixes for shared libraries
- on powerpc, as well as many other improvements and bug fixes.
+ fullly working mips shared library support, shared library support fixes
+ for on powerpc, and many other improvements. One very exciting new feature
+ is nearly complete locale support, thanks to a lot of hard work by Manuel
+ Novoa III. uClibc's locale support is <em>much</em> smaller than glibc's,
+ though it is also slightly less flexible. This release was delayed by a
+ month due to the arrival of a new baby at Erik's house. For those that
+ have been anxiously waiting, this release should certainly be worth the
+ wait. Have fun!
