[Bigsister-announce] Big Sister 0.98c7 production release

[Thomas A. <ae...@gr...>]

After a long time of major code rewrites we are pleased to finally 
announce a new Big Sister production/stable release. Many new features, 
the completely rewritten documentation and the revised look&feel have 
made their way into the world of stable releases, therefore.

If you have still be running the previous stable release (0.97) please 
go through the release notes of the various 0.98 releases in order to 
find the numerous changes documented, if you were already running on of 
the 0.98 series releases you will find out that only a few bug fixes 
have been made between the latest beta and the new production release.

Thanks for your patience and your support throughout the years!

The 0.98c7 Release notes have been attached for completeness ...

Best regards,
Tom Aeby

==========================================

  No features have been added between beta6 and c7. Please
read release notes for the 0.98b series to find out what
has changed between the last production release (0.97) and
this production release.

  The latest version of the Big Sister docu is distributed
with this release.

  The new default skin (techie) is now compatible with
Internet Explorer.

  Spurious false-positives (mainly TCP based tests) caused
by a uxmon malfunction have been fixed.

  Hangs in the start script during bsmon startup have been
fixed.

  Graphical image maps did not always update correctly on 
status change and therefore under some circumstances have
reflected false status colors. This has been fixed.

  The history CGI now remembers the selected detail level.
  
  When running 'make install-client' only the Big Sister
modules being included in the release are not installed.
The make procedure now displays the suggestion to additionally
run 'make install-modules'.
