Hans Kinwel [EMAIL PROTECTED] spake:
I thought to download a more or less current version of mon.
According to http://sourceforge.net/projects/mon/ mon-0.38.20 is
the current version, with a timestamp of 2000-08-29, it even has an
ANNOUNCE file.
According to ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/software/admin/mon/ it says
LATEST-STABLE-IS-0.99.2 with a timestamp of 09/08/2001
For the daredevils there's a devel tree, with loads of mon-0.99*, all
timestamped 2003/2004, and I personally run already for years mon-1.0pre4
without any significant problem.
Also I see loads of mon-1.0pre* but nowhere a mon-1.0.tar.gz, but I *do*
see mon-1.1.0pre? files. So I guess mon went from 1.0pre5 to 1.1pre1,
whilst skipping any stable or this is our current baseline mention.
This is all rather disheartening.
Cleaning out the tree would take no more than fifteen minutes, and would
consist of deleting all references (maybe under obsolete) to 0.38 and
0.99 versions, and making a symlink from mon.1.0.gz to mon.1.0pre5.gz.
To add to this comment...
While I love mon and continue to use it... I darned near almost passed
it up due to the last stable version being Aug 2000. I figured it was
a dead project if nothing happened. Of course I still ended up here.
Just something to consider...
