Squashfs is a sourceforge project, and it has a link to the main sourceforge page from the webpage. I've always thought that sufficient because users can get to the mailing lists, web forum, bug tracker etc. from that, and then choose what they think is the most appropriate way to report issues. Missing information is simply that, and I rely on feedback from users to say if I've forgotten to add important or relevant information anywhere. It would be helpful if that feedback didn't include an implied criticism, that way we'll all get along better. > > I built it from cvs (imported into git), and it works okay. > Good, this is what I suggested you do :-) CVS contains everything I've been working on for the last couple of months. I intended to do a release last week, but, release testing found a number of bugs and other issues which had to be addressed, and which consequently delayed the release. If you grabbed the tools from CVS more than a day ago you'll find there's problems with Unsquashfs and big-endian systems. The last bug fix (a deadlock issue in mksquashfs undiscovered since 3.4) went in just now, and so CVS should be what's in the release. BTW Stephen, it would be helpful if you subscribed to the squashfs-devel mailing list, at the moment I've having to authorise all your posts which is a bit of a pain.
