I keep seeing references to 1.05 -- is there an estimate for when it
will become available to the waiting, huddled, masses?

Today.

Bash 1.05 is being released today. Bash 1.06 will be released in less
than a month.

I apologize for not releasing 1.05 sooner. I was waiting for some
materials to arrive, and when they did arrive, I found them unuseable.

Bash 1.05 does not come with documentation. 1.06 will have some
documentation with it.

--- About 1.05 --

New, improved Makefile and friends, should make porting a breeze!
All comments welcome.

Installation consists of typing "make".

I beleive that we have succesfully handled all of the bug reports posted
to this list. Of course, I am probably wrong, but I am sure that you
folks will let me know!

Thanks for using Bash,

Brian Fox

PS: Thanks to Chet Ramey for helping maintain, and fixing bugs.
Thanks to Chip Salzenberg for his recent help and bug fixes.
Thanks to all of you who have helped me to produce this program!
