5  
6 +        BIND 9.6 ESV R5
7 +
8 + 20111022:
9 +        cflow 0.0.6 imported
10 +
11 + 20111020:
12 +        less v436 imported
13 +
14 +        amdsbwd(4) AMD southbridge watchdog
15 +
16 + 20111019:
17 +        awk 20110810 imported
18 +
19 +        et(4) Agere Gigabit Ethernet/Fast Ethernet driver added, but
20 +        not included in GENERIC kernel.  The kernel module needs
21 +        testing before we can include it in GENERIC.
22 +
23 +        intr_bind code ported to allow an IRQ to be bound to one
24 +        specific CPU core.
25 +
26 + 20111017:
27 +        Time Zone Data v. 2011l (Released 10 October 2011)
28 +
29 +        Updated list of countries (iso3166) to work with new timezone data.
30 +
31 + 20111015:
32 +        Introduce CPU Affinity in MidnightBSD. cpuset(1) can be used
33 +        to control which core or group of cores can be used for a given
34 +        process. Several new system calls were added to support this
35 +        functionality in the running kernel and for 32bit binary
36 +        compatibility on amd64.
37 +
38 +        The scheduler default has been changed to ULE in i386 and
39 +        amd64.  Changes were made to both schedulers (4BSD AND ULE)
40 +        for this feature.
41 +
42 +        This work is based on Jeff Roberson's FreeBSD 7.1 patches.
43 +
44 + 20111004:
45 +        Fix a problem with unix socket handling caused by the recent
46 +        patch to unix socket path handling. This allows network
47 +        apps to work under the linuxolator again.
48 +
49 + 20111001:
50 +        Import libfetch & fetch(1) from FreeBSD 9. Passive FTP is
51 +        now default and an environment variable must be set to use
52 +        active.
53 +
54 + 20110930:
55 +        Introduce quirks handling for several umass devices including
56 +        USB cameras.  Add workaround for Cyberpower UPS devices.
57 +
58 +        Bring in further bug fixes from FreeBSD and NetBSD for alc(4).
59 +        Stale ip/tcp header pointers are no longer used, lockups fixed
60 +        when network cable is unplugged on bootup, enable TX checksum
61 +        offloading.
62 +
63 +        Add a new man page for gcache(8), a useful geom class when
64 +        working with large raid3 sets.
65 +
66 +        Restore previous workaround for Cypress pata storage controller.
67 +
68 + 20110929:
69 +        Sync ath(4) with FreeBSD 7.3.
70 +
71 +        The following modules are no longer available, and should be
72 +        removed from loader.conf:
73 +        ath_hal ath_rate_amrr ath_rate_onoe ath_rate_sample
74 +
75 +        alc(4) would hibernate when a cable was unplugged and often
76 +        required bring the interface down and up to "wake up" so that
77 +        a connection could be established.  Disable hibernation.
78 +
79 + 20110928:
80 +        Fix security issues with gzip and compress related to .Z
81 +        files that are corrupted.
82 +
83 +        Fix path validation with unix domain sockets.
84 +
85 + 20110917:
86 +        Remove dependance on mports perl for generating releases as
87 +        it's in the base system.
88 +
89 + 20110914:
90 +        Import xz 5.0.3 with liblzma 5.0.3
91 +
92 + 20110813:
93 +        synced the sparc64 GENERIC kernel configuration with amd64.
94 +
95 + 20110806:
96 +        sqlite 3.7.7.1 imported
97 +
98 +        msearch(1), libmsearch and msearch.import added.  msearch(1) provides
99 +        a full text search command line tool.  libmsearch can also be used
100 +        to build a graphical based search in the future. You can enable
101 +        index building for msearch in periodic.conf or manually run the
102 +        /usr/libexec/msearch.index tool.  Full text indexes take considerable
103 +        space in /var.  I'm using approximately 500MB currently.
104 +
105 +        Fix a long standing bug with the periodic script to check package
106 +        versions.  This will be obsolete with mport though.
107 +
108 + 20110710:
109 +        kdb_enter_why added to MidnightBSD to allow the kernel debugger to
110 +        know why it's in use and thus script can be run.
111 +
112 +        Yet another problem with the perl manifest was fixed
113 +
114 + 20110709:
115 +        cpufreq(1) is a new utility to monitor CPU frequency which may change
116 +        with use of powerd(8) and cpufreq(4).
117 +
118 + 20110612:
119 +        Update mksh to R40
120 +
121 +        Catch up ObsoleteFiles.inc to remove Perl 5.10.x.  Good to run when
122 +        updating current (cd /usr/src && make check-old)
123 +
124 + 20110528:
125 +        Fix CVE-2011-1910 in BIND 9.6.x.  This affects caching resolvers.
126 +
127 + 20110526:
128 +        newfs:
129 +        Raised the default blocksize for UFS/FFS filesystems from
130 +        16K to 32K and the default fragment size from 2K to 4K.
131 +
132 +        This should slightly imporve performance on "advanced format"
133 +        hard drives such as the WD EARS drives. Drives of this type
134 +        have emulation modes that slow down with lower sizes.  Of course
135 +        the drive must still be aligned properly when using fdisk.
136 +
137 + 20110521:
138 +        mport tool now has a deleteall command.  This can be used to remove
139 +        all packages from a system.
140 +
141 +        A few bugs with the perl 5.14 import have been fixed.
142 +
143 + 20110518:
144 +        Perl 5.14.0
145 +
146 + 20110517:
147 +        Sendmail 8.14.5
148 +
149 + 20110314:
150 +        DRM/DRI code updated to support newer video cards. (FreeBSD 7.1)
151 +
152 +        cdevpriv wrappers added
153 +
154 +        nss_mdns hack introduced to work around linking problem.
155 +
156 +        dnsextd fixed after update to mDNSResponder code.
157 +
158 + 20110308:
159 +        Introduce liblzma & xz 5.0.1 to the base system
160 +
161 +        Patch for OpenSSL security issue CVE-2011-0014.
162 +
163 +        "OSREVISION 4004"
164 +
165 +        nsswitch module for multicast dns (nss_mdns) added.
166 +
167 +        tzdata2011c
168 +
169 + 20110220:
170 +        cam(4) syncronized with FreeBSD 7.3.
171 +
172 + 20110219:
173 +        amdtemp(4) updated to support sensors framework.
174 +
175 + 20110217:
176 +        Perl 5.10.1 imported
177 +
178 + 20110216:
179 +        Introduce igb(4) and split Intel Gigabit Ethernet adapters between
180 +        igb(4) and em(4).  Newer devices use igb(4).  The code has moved
181 +        to sys/dev/e1000 for both devices in the kernel. igb(4) has
182 +        been placed in GENERIC on i386 and amd64.
183 +
184 +        Update bfe(4) to support newer devices and WOL.
185 +
186 + 20110215:
187 +        age(4) added.
188 +
189 + 20110208:
190 +        BIND 9.6.3 which fixes a bug with DNSSEC records getting added.
191 +
192 + 20110206:
193 +        eeemon(4) added to monitor Asus Eee PC.
194 +
195 + 20110205:
196 +        OpenSSH 5.7p1
197 +
198 +        GNU sort 6.9 (coreutils)
199 +
200 + 20110203:
201 +        one true awk 20100523 imported
202 +
203 +        sqlite 3.7.5
204 +
205 +        OpenSSL 0.9.8q
206 +
207 + 20110202:
208 +        tcsh 6.17.00
209 +
210 +        file 5.05
211 +
212 + 20110122:
213 +        Import it(4) and lm(4), with support for Super I/O hardware monitors. This
214 +        uses the sensors framework ported by Constantine A. Murenin (GSOC2007)
215 +
216 + 20110120:
217 +        BIND 9.6.2-P3
218 +
219 +        sudo 1.7.4-p6
220 +
221 + 20110115:
222 +        Add experimental jme(4) for Jmicron ethernet devices.
223 +
224 + 20101130:
225 +        A double free exists in the SSL client ECDH handling code, when
226 +        processing specially crafted public keys with invalid prime
227 +        numbers. [CVE-2010-2939]
228 +
229 + 20101120:
230 +        Several portions of the kernel and userland code related to UFS file
231 +        systems (and UFS2) cannot properly handle inode counts above 2^31 due
232 +        to use of int types.  Based on a patch from FreeBSD, I've modified
233 +        our UFS2 implementation to handle unsigned values for inode counts
234 +        which should allow for file systems greater than 16TB.
235 +
236 +        newfs and growfs was also modified.
237 +
238 + 20101110:
239 +        Fix a security issue with pseudofs which could result in running code in kernel
240 +        context or a kernel panic depending on system configuration.  This affects file
241 +        systems such as procfs for instance.
242 +
243 + 20101021:
244 +        sysrc is a utility to print and modify name/value pairs in /etc/rc.conf easily.
245 +        This is similar to functions present in many linux distros. The utility was
246 +        written by Devin Teske for FreeBSD.
247 +
248 + 20100920:
249 +        bzip2 security patch for integer overflow.
250 +
251 + 20100905:
252 +        MidnightBSD RELENG_0_3 branch created.  Aggressive development continues here
253 +        for 0.4.
254 +
255 + 20100902:
256 +        Fix a security issue with libutil that allows users to bypass cpu limits in
257 +        login.conf in some cases.  This combined with OpenSSH for example can allow
258 +        the user to get more resources than they're allowed.
259 +
260 + 20100822:
261 +        Import Apple's mDNSResponder (mdnsd).
262 +
263 + 20100814:
264 +        libdispatch added to MidnightBSD.  This provides functionality found in
265 +        Mac OS X's GCD.  We do not have blocks support yet.  As this code is
266 +        licensed under Apache 2, we create a new MK_APACHE option so that
267 +        it's not required for all users to run code under a license they
268 +        may not like.
269 +
270 + 20100713:
271 +        mbuf readonly fix related to sendfile(2) data corruption.
272 +
273 + 20100704:
274 +        brainfuck(1) imported from MirBSD.
275 +
276 + 20100505:
277 +        zlib 1.2.5
278 +
279 + 20100430:
280 +        Sudo 1.7.2p6 imported
281 +
282 + 20100321:
283 +        Update zlib to 1.2.4
284 +
285 + 20100319:
286 +        Removed i586 from default i386 generic kernel.
287 +
288 + 20100317:
289 +        Update to tzdata2010e (time zones).  This includes changes in
290 +        Mexico.
291 +
292 +        Add support for several newer sound cards via hda including
293 +        ATI and Realtek chipsets.
294 +
295 + 20100313:
296 +        CPU detection has been changed.  VIA Padlock detection added.
297 +
298 + 20100312:
299 +        Fix a number of bugs and compiler warnings in libmport. Handle
300 +        plus signs in paths for mport.check-fake
301 +
302 + 20100311:
303 +        mksh R39c
304 +
305 + 20100309:
306 +        Sudo 1.7.2p5
307 +
308 +        sqlite3 3.6.23
309 +
310 +        mksh R39b
311 +
312 +        libffi (ffi) 3.0.9
313 +
314 + 20100206:
315 +        WITHOUT_LIB32 is no longer needed on AMD64.  GCC was fixed to
316 +        properly pass arguments to ld.
317 +
318 +        re(4) and rl(4) have been updated to support several new
319 +        realtek chipsets.  Performance has been improved on re(4).
320 +
321 + 20100204:
322 +        Fix a bug cropping up on AMD64 MidnightBSD with sftp
323 +        segfaulting.  
324 +
325 + 20100116:
326 +        Import ash changes from FreeBSD (bin/sh) 8-Stable.
327 +
328 +        BIND 9.6.1-P2
329 +
330 + 20100110:
331 +        Import Sendmail 8.14.4. Fix for SSL vulnerability.
332 +
333 +        posix_spawn(3) added to MidnightBSD libc.  Users may need to build and
334 +        install libc before doing a full buildworld when upating from 0.2 or
335 +        older current systems.
336 +
337 +        kqueue(2) was modified to support portions of libdispatch functionality.
338 +
339 + 20100106:
340 +        Bind security update.  Fix a bug with DNSSEC that causes negative
341 +        cache entries and thus a possible DNS cache poisoning attack.
342 +
343 +        Fix a bug in ZFS that can reset permissions on system crashes.
344 +
345 + 20091228:
346 +        amdtemp(4) was added.  It allows one to monitor to the temperature
347 +        of an AMD CPU such as a Phenom.
348 +
349 + 20091205:
350 +        OpenSSL security fix
351 +
352 +        The SSL version 3 and TLS protocols support session renegotiation without
353 +        cryptographically tying the new session parameters to the old parameters.
354 +
355 + 20091128:
356 +        OpenBSD sensors framework imported including sensorsd(8)
357 +
358 + 20091126:
359 +        OpenNTPD 4.4 import
360 +
361 +        Update OpenSSH to 5.3p1
362 +
363 +        mksh R39
364 +
365 + 20091124:
366 +        cpdup updated from DragonFly to 1.15
367 +
368 +        tzdata2009s updated with latest timezone data for November 2009.
369 +
370 + 20091010:
371 +        amd64 users should use WITHOUT_LIB32=yes in /etc/make.conf for now
372 +        to test current.
373 +
374 +        Revert unicode filename fixes from ntfs code.  This was causing chaos
375 +        on amd64 systems.
376 +
377 + 20091006:
378 +        Update timezone data with tzdata2009n with the Pakistan and
379 +        Argentina changes.
380 +
381 +        Sync several userland utilities with versions from FreeBSD 7.0 in
382 +        sbin and usr.sbin.
383 +
384 + 20090919:
385 +        Update timezone data with tzdate2009m from September 2009.
386 +
387 + 20090729:
388 +        Patch for Bind 9 security vulnerability. a dynmaic update packet
389 +        can trigger an assertion and cause named to exit
390 +
391 + 20090606:
392 +        Remove PCC from the base system.  This compiler will not work
393 +        as a system compiler for us as we've got some userland investment
394 +        in C++ code and may have Objective-C in the future.  We're stuck
395 +        with a solution that supports these three languages at a minimum.
396 +
397 +        I had wanted to keep it as an optional compiler because it is
398 +        fast, however too many users want to try to use it for the base
399 +        system which makes no sense.
400 +
401 +        A hack was added for Cypress based usb hard drive enclosures to
402 +        the kernel.  This should cut down on commands it claims to support
403 +        but does not (at the cam layer).  Found while testing ZFS on
404 +        an external device.
405 +
406 + 20090520:
407 +        The powerd daemon no longer starts automatically to improve
408 +        compatibility with many systems.  However, there is a new
409 +        installer option in the startup section to enable it. This
410 +        makes it easier to enable for users that have working systems. I                thought it was only a problem on older hardware, but it freaks
411 +        out my new Phenom too.
412 +
413 + 20090502:
414 +        OpenSSH 5.2p1 import
415 +
416 +        ale(4) connected to the build. (kernel module only)
417 +
418 + 20090501:
419 +        Imported makefs utility from NetBSD/FreeBSD
420 +
421 + 20090422:
422 +        OpenSSL security update
423 +
424 +        The function ASN1_STRING_print_ex does not properly validate the lengths
425 + of BMPString or UniversalString objects before attempting to print them.
426 +
427 + 20090415:
428 +        Created a Symbol.map for libc/ohash symbols
429 +
430 +        Updated several usr/bin usr/sbin utilities.
431 +
432 +        Corrected a bug with Makefile.inc1 causing the bootstrap
433 +        tools to fail.
434 +
435 + 20090405:
436 +        xorg 7.4 wants to configure its input devices via hald which does not
437 +        yet work with USB. If the keyboard/mouse does not work in xorg then
438 +        add
439 +                Option "AllowEmptyInput" "off"
440 +        to your ServerLayout section.  This will cause X to use the configured
441 +        kbd and mouse sections from your xorg.conf
442 +
443 + 20090403:
444 +        mksh was disconnected a few day ago do to bugs with
445 +        buildworld and mports.  Now, connect it back
446 +        for use as /bin/sh with a conditional called
447 +        MK_ASH.  By default, ash is the standard /bin/sh
448 +        but we may change this later.  This will allow further
449 +        testing by users and developers of mksh without
450 +        causing an unpleasant default experience.  In the
451 +        long run, we need to fix mksh compatibility.
452 +
453 + 20090328:
454 +        Bring in mksh R37 from CVS. The dot.mkshrc files for root
455 +        and skel were changed.  mksh(1) now replaces ash aka sh(1)
456 +        as the default /bin/sh.  Please report bugs with
457 +        ports, etc. The ash code will remain in the repo for awhile
458 +        as I decide if we'll add something like MK_SHELL_ASH as
459 +        an optional build parameter.  
460 +
461 +        ahd was disconnected from the lint environment until
462 +        the compiler bug is sorted (by updating gcc?)
463 +
464 +        Remove freebsd-tips from fortune files and change the
465 +        default for login and profile.
466 +
467 + 20090327:
468 +        Update libarchive to 2.5.5, tar, and add bsdcpio.
469 +
470 +        Also previously, ctriv has been connecting Perl 5.10
471 +        to the build (part of os).  This will have an impact
472 +        on mports.
473 +
474 + 20090325:
475 +        Update Bind to 9.4.3-P1
476 +
477 +        Update mksh to R36b
478 +
479 +        Update tcpdump to 3.9.8, fix libpcap to work with current.
480 +
481 +        Update pnpinfo, sync with FreeBSD.
482 +
483 + 20090115:
484 +        Fix a problem with DNSSEC and BIND.
485 +
486 + 20090110:
487 +        For applications using OpenSSL for SSL connections, an invalid SSL
488 +        certificate may be interpreted as valid.  This could for example be
489 +        used by an attacker to perform a man-in-the-middle attack.
490 +
491 +        Other applications which use the OpenSSL EVP API may similarly be
492 +        affected.
493 +
494 +        Stop cross site request forgery attacks in lukemftpd
495 +
496 + 20090104:
497 +        Import GNU libreadline 5.2
498 +
499 + 20090101:
500 +        Update time zone data to 2008i.
501 +
502 + 20081231:
503 +        Correct a problem where bluetooth and netgraph sockets are not
504 +        properly initialized.
505 +
506 +        Happy 2009.
507 +
508 + 20081206:
509 +        Due to the massive change in the underlying system under way,
510 +        we're naming the next release 1.0.  The sys/sys/param.h was
511 +        changed accordingly.  ipfilter and ncurses were corrected
512 +        using __MidnightBSD__ tests in the code.  
513 +
514 +        The GENERIC kernel config was caught up on i386 today.  Consider
515 +        i386 still broken, but amd64 is running again.
516 +
517 +        mdoc.local was updated with the new MidnightBSD version info.
518 +
519 +        batt(1) was rewritten in C.  It now supports several flags and
520 +        runs about 8 times faster on my laptop.  The default output
521 +        shows the number of minutes of battery life remaining and the
522 +        percentage.  You can use -u to display the number of batteries or
523 +        -c to get script friendly output.  Consult the man page for more.
524 +
525 + 20081204:
526 +        Work has completed on importing ZFS, jemalloc, several
527 +        new devices, SCTP, updated pf, a new tempfs, linuxolator 2.6 kernel
528 +        support, improved locking for file desc., audit (openbsm),
529 +        openssl .98e, nfe, imporved intel high def audio, midi, updated
530 +        intel gigabit (em), support for several wifi cards (intel), ...
531 +
532 +        Renamed 0.3-CURRENT officially. Switched to using MidnightBSD version
533 +        data from param.h instead of the FreeBSD version.  This means
534 +        testing is now possible in the ports tree for the version
535 +        and that any ports or code relying on the FreeBSD version from
536 +        sys/sys/param.h will need to be fixed.
537 +
538 + 20080905:
539 +        update nve(4) to support new hardware.
540 +
541 + 20080801:
542 +        Import OpenBSM 1.0
543 +
544 +        Modify src/release to create 3 isos instead of 2 for packages.
545 +
546 +        etc/rc.d/firstboot now enables kdm, gnustep + slim and bsdstats.
547 +
548 +        Many ia64, alpha, powerpc items were removed.
549 +
550 +        The recent diffutils 2.8.7 import was fixed.
551 +
552 + 20080703:
553 +        pcc was not installed properly when setting DESTDIR for live cds,
554 +        or posibly jails.
555 +
556 + 20080627:
557 +        Add firmware(9), WEP, CCMP, TKIP to GENERIC.
558 +
559 +        Add glabel to GENERIC.
560 +
561 +        Intel ICH8 mobile chipset used on some iMacs included with ata.
562 +
563 +        pcc connected to the build on i386. (alternative compiler)
564 +
565 +        ath added to GENERIC.  (Atheros wireless NICs) on amd64/i386
566 +
567 + 20080528:
568 +        Sendmail 8.14.3
569 +
570 + 20080516:
571 +        ssh-vulnkey allows you to look for vulnerable ssh keys that
572 +        were generated on Debian and Ubuntu hosts over the last
573 +        few years.  sshd can block offending keys with a configuration
574 +        option.
575 +
576 +        The elf note on binaries is now set to MidnightBSD.
577 +
578 + 20080514:
579 +        Fixed a number of problems with pcc.  It is not yet connected
580 +        to the build, but usable on i386 hosts.  You may use it
581 +        by make; make install in /usr/src/usr.bin/pcc.  It will
582 +        install in /usr/local as some of the files conflict with
583 +        GCC versions. __MidnightBSD__ is defined in PCC as well.
584 +
585 +        System headers were fixed to allow pcc to compile many binaries
586 +        on MidnightBSD.  bin/cp will work now for instance.
587 +
588 + 20080430:
589 +        __MidnightBSD__ is now defined via gcc.  This can be tested
590 +        to determine we're running on MidnightBSD in the preprocessor.
591 +
592 + 20080429:
593 +        Import bind 9.4.2 with threading
594 +
595 +        libpthread (KSE) and libthr are built earlier
596 +        
597 +        pcvt(4) removed!
598 +
599 +        Alias added for core2 cpus.
600 +
601 +        Alpha and PC98 only utilities removed from usr/sbin
602 +
603 +        syslogd, adduser, rmuser, mergemaster and mailwrapper have been
604 +        improved.  See the man pages for info.
605 +
606 +        periodic scripts will not send emails with empty message bodies.
607 +        See mailwrapper fix.
608 +
609 + 20080410:
610 +        Sync cpdup with DragonFly.  Add parallel transaction support and
611 +        -l flag to line-buffer stdout and stderr.
612 +
613 + 20080406:
614 +        Import bzip2 1.05
615 +        Import OpenSSH 4.9p1
616 +
617 + 20080322:
618 +        The default umask was changed to 022.
619 +        
620 +        /usr/X11R6 paths were removed from several config files.
621 +
622 +        .mkshrc files are now installed for root.
623 +
624 + 20080316:
625 +        FIx a problem with gif0 tunnels and neighbors with IPV6.
626 +
627 + 20080312:
628 +        Add lndir from X.org.  This aides in the porting of MirPorts.
629 +
630 +        New OS versions were added to the mapage code (groff)
631 +
632 + 20080310:
633 +        Correct a buffer overflow in ppp.
634 +
635 + 20080308:
636 +        Remove /usr/X11R6 from manpath config.
637 +
638 + 20080307:
639 +        Atheros driver no longer has several options set
640 +        which corrects building in tinderbox on all three platforms.
641 +
642 +        Added a new macro to sx.h which returns true if the current
643 +        thread holds an exclusive lock on a specifix sx.
644 +
645 +        Removed OS/2's HPFS file system.   It's not maintained and
646 +        I don't know anyone using OS/2 or ecomstation these days.
647 +        My copy is in the closet collecting dust.
648 +
649 + 20080306:
650 +        Synced tinderbox with FreeBSD.  Modified it for MidnightBSD.
651 +        Developers can now use it to check src builds.
652 +
653 + 20080303:
654 +        Add mksh to /etc/shells, made some adjustments to options
655 +        for mksh builds per suggestion upstream.
656 +
657 +        USB HID table updated with modern hardware list.
658 +
659 +        Updated BSD family true (we're not in there yet)
660 +
661 +        iso3166 file updated and import of tzdata2007k for
662 +        new time zones.
663 +
664 +        Updated mksh to latest version R33.
665 +
666 + 20080228:
667 +        Remplaced the random IP id generation code with a new
668 +        version by Amit Klein.
669 +
670 + 20080221:
671 +        Sendfile write only permissions fix.
672 +
673 +        Removed some HPFS and PC98 code.
674 +
675 +        iso639 file sycned with DragonFly.
676 +
677 + 20080128:
678 +        Changed NTP configuration so that ips aren't cached
679 +        so multiple servers are used.
680 +
681 +        Fix an issue with fork() in libpthread.
682 +
683 + 20080121:
684 +        Add virtualization detection to set the HZ rate
685 +        according to a VM present.  VMWare and Parallels
686 +        should work better like this.
687 +
688 +        Change to full x11 install in sysinstall.  Add
689 +        xorg 7 support.
690 +
691 + 20080115:
692 +        Fix the handling of PTY's.  CVE-2008-0216
693 +
694 + 20080105:
695 +        mport delete code added, USE_MPORT_TOOLS knob aded.
696 +
697 + 20080101:
698 +        Happy New Year
699 +
700 + 20071123:
701 +        Update sendmail to 8.14.2
702 +
703 + 20071120:
704 +        Update system compiler to gcc 3.4.6.
705 +
706 + 20071023:
707 +        Updated mksh to R31d.
708 +
709 + 20070911:
710 +        Updated mksh to version R31b.
711 +
712 +        Fixed stderr output in libpthread.  Previously it was
713 +        written to stdout.
714 +
715 + 20070831:
716 +        Added dot.mkshrc file to support the recent change to
717 +        mksh from OpenBSD's ksh derived from pdksh.  
718 +
719 +        Added new firewall configuration.  ipfw is enabled by default
720 +        with a "desktop" configuration.  Consult /etc/rc.firewall
721 +        or ipfw show to see the ruleset used.  You can disable
722 +        ipfw by setting firewall_enable="NO" in /etc/rc.conf This
723 +        change only effects IPv4.  IPv6 does not have a firewall
724 +        enabled by default.
725 +
726 + 20070814:
727 +        Removed GNU tar source.  We've been using BSD tar
728 +        for awhile.
729 +
730 + 20070806:
731 +        Finished removing umapfs and autofs from the tree.
732 +
733 + 20070804:
734 +        BIND and Tcpdump have been patched for recent vulnerabilities.
735 +
736 +        We switched to BSD cpio (pax).
737 +
738 + 20070719:
739 +        Imported cpdup from DragonFly as /bin/cpdup
740 +
741 + 20070716:
742 +        Update GNU cpio to 2.8.
743 +
744 + 20070410:
745 +        cvs was updated to 1.12.13.  cvsbug was removed.
746 +        cvs now behaves similarly to DragonFly's cvs with
747 +        most of their local changes.  
748 +
749 + 20070409:
750 +        RELENG_0_1 was created. More aggresive changes will
751 +        continue here.
752 +
753 + 20070406:
754 +        Back out propolice.  propolice caused several problems
755 +        with our threading libraries libthr and libpthread.  
756 +        curthread was often NULL after the patch and many
757 +        multithreaded applications would crash.  We plan to
758 +        work on either bringing in gcc 4.1 or developing a new
759 +        patch which also corrects our threading issues later.
760 +
761 +        It is more important to have a stable system for our
762 +        mport work and other projects at this time.
763 +
764 +        This is not a clean removal.  It is recommended that you
765 +        have a recently SNAP CD handy.  You can either reinstall
766 +        or perform a make buildworld and make buildkernel and
767 +        make installkernel.  Reboot on the cd and copy the contents
768 +        of /bin, /sbin, /lib, /libexec, and /usr/bin, /usr/sbin,
769 +        /usr/lib, and /usr/libexec to the respective directories on
770 +        your disk.  Then you should be able to boot into single user
771 +        mode and run make installworld.  You will need to run
772 +        chflags noschg on some of the files if you can't overwrite
773 +        them.
774 +
775 +        You will get __guard missing errors since we had to remove
776 +        this from libc.
777 +
778 +        You will need to rebuild any ports built while propolice was
779 +        installed.
780 +
781 + 20070401:
782 +        Importing propolice into MidnightBSD. Propolice is going to
783 +        provide us with much greater security and stability in the
784 +        long run. If upgrading from a pre-propolice system, please
785 +        follow the these instructions:
786 +
787 +        cd /usr/src/lib/libc && make obj && make && make install
788 +        cd /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/cc && make obj && make && make install
789 +        cd /usr/src/lib/libpthread && make obj && make && make install
790 +        cd /usr/src/lib/libthr && make obj && make && make install
791 +        buildworld and kernel
792 +
793 +        It is adviced that any mports which were installed and/or built
794 +        prior to the propolice update also be updated. If any errors
795 +        or issue are encounted, please contact security@midnightbsd.org
796 +        and we will be sure to investigate and come up with an expeditious
797 +        fix.
798 +
799 + 20070314:
800 +        Remove send-pr from src.
801 +
802 +        Switch to NetBSD's gzip.
803 +
804 +        Bump MBSD minor revision.
805 +
806 + 20070313:
807 +        Imported OpenSSH 4.6p1.
808 +
809 +        Imported FreeBSD's libarchive and updated tar to work with it.
810 +
811 +        Disabled debug statements cluttering up /var/log/messages for
812 +        the tcp autobuf patch applied previously.
813 +
814 + 20070312:
815 +        Synced several audio changes from FreeBSD 6.1. Removed the
816 +        BSD Daemon files from src/share.  
817 +
818 + 20070308:
819 +        Added mfi which supports LSI Logic MegaRAID SAS devices including
820 +        the Dell perc5i.
821 +
822 + 20070206:
823 +        Imported OpenBSD's sudo into source. Please install
824 +        /usr/src/usr.bin/sudo/lib first before building.
825 +
826 +        Those who install from a snapshot after this date
827 +        will not be effected.
828 +
829 + 20070119:
830 +        Added audit group.  Be sure to add audit to your /etc/group file
831 +        before installing world.
832 +
833 +        hostapd was updated to 0.4.8.
834 +
835 +        An accidental commit in usr.sbin/bluetooth/hccontrol was fixed to
836 +        unbreak world.
837 +
838 +        wpa_supplicant was updated.
839 +
840 +        For stability and compatibility reasons, it was decided that MidnightBSD
841 +        sync with FreeBSD 6.1 Release.  Nearly every change between the original
842 +        fork date of February 24, 2006 and the release of FreeBSD 6.1 in May
843 +        2006 will be merged.  Beyond this, MidnightBSD will be a "real" fork and
844 +        will not sync every little change with FreeBSD.
845 +
846 + 20061231:
847 +        Updated COPYRIGHT for 2007.
848 +
849 +        Updated and bumped libutil after importing NetBSD efun(3) functions.
850 +
851 +        Added MidnightBSD_version and bumped the FreeBSD version as we've
852 +        synced all commits between the fork and that version.  It is now safe
853 +        to assume MidnightBSD is compatible with FreeBSD RELENG_6 from
854 +        Feb 26, 2006.
855 +
856 +        Added spell(1) and deroff(1) from NetBSD.  Also added additional
857 +        dict files to work with it. /usr/share/dict/american,
858 +        /usr/share/dict/british and /usr/share/dict/special/math
859 +
860 +        Numerous man page and bug fixes.
861 +
862   20061226:
863          Setup /usr/share/examples/cvsup SUPfiles for the new
864          MidnightBSD CVSup server.
