Changes: boot-floppies (2.3.0) unstable; urgency=medium
 .
  * first version for woody
 .
    - this is completely and utterly untested; it is reported to build on
      i386 and sparc; I'm sure it *doesn't* build on other arches yet
 .
    - the purpose of this release is to get wider distribution, and get a
      version in woody that at least satisfies dependancies
 .
    Please help!  Read README-CVS to get a version from CVS; use README to
    get started so you can build; start picking off stuff from 'todo'.
    We are *not* ready for testers yet.
 .
  * Adam Di Carlo
    - debian/control: remove obsolete cslatex, cspsfonts stuff; remove
      some obsolete build-depends (closes: Bug#77048); add depends on
      console-data, required for loadkeys from keymaps.sh; sync
      build-depends and depends; add depends on busybox and
      build-essential; remove depends for console-data
    - Makefile: break up into files in make/*
    - remove rsync mirroring stuff; we get packages as needed apt-get
    - stop building or providing base, use debootstrap instead
      (closes: Bug#75018, Bug#64565)
    - root: use nano-tiny rather than ae as our editor; add net-tools and
      busybox packages
    - root: remove stuff now in busybox
      . remove lazybox for free and lsmod
      . remove sed package (/bin/sed) completely
      . remove shellutils (/bin/expr) completely
      . add a blank /etc/ld.so.conf
    - dbootstrap: improve messages when network devices not found
      and the user is asked to configure the hostname
  * Randolph Chung:
    - rework the dbootstrap makefile
    - some preliminary ia64 work
  * David Whedon
    - 'udma66' flavor is now called 'ide' flavor, docs and code updated
    - use debootstrap to download base system rather that baseX_X.tgz
    - fix handling of nameservers during install (closes: Bug#67510)
    - network installation will optionally ask you whether you wish to
      install woody, potato, or slink (defaulting to woody of course)
  * Guido Guenther:
    - SGI partition label support for MIPs
  * Ben Collins:
    - library reduction updates, now works on PowerPC
  * Taketoshi Sano: working on i18n support, adding a new utility,
    'shrink_strings' to shrink strings correctly because euc-jp encoded
    strings need special treating at line breaking to work with slang and
    newt libraries
  * Matt Kraai
    - dbootstrap network download logging improvements (closes: Bug#92907)
    - tell HTTP connections to close when net-fetching, eliminating a wait
      after downloading has finished (closes: Bug#93054)
    - documentation fixes (closes: Bug#93069)
