[Dazuko-devel] 2.0.3 released

[John Ogness]

Hi,

I have finally released version 2.0.3 of Dazuko. Thanks to a really 
great patch from Patrick Bihan-Faou, the FreeBSD 4 module is now capable 
of blocking ON_OPEN events for files that do not exist (preventing them 
from being created). This logic should work for the other platforms as 
well and I will be porting it over in the coming weeks.

With 2.0.3 also comes the official release of the Perl and Python 
versions of the Dazuko interface. This brings the number of officially 
supported languages to 4! (C, Java, Perl, Python)

Be sure to check out `configure --help' to see all the available 
configuration options. By default Makefile's will only be generated for 
the kernel module and the C library.

I have been diving deep into the code lately to isolate problem areas. 
Tomorrow I will be posting a pre-release for 2.1.0, which includes a new 
abstraction layer in userspace. I am also developing a "dummy kit" to 
help people who are interested in porting Dazuko to other platforms. 
Porting is actually quite easy, but without any good guidance, it seems 
overwhelming. (By the way, it is called dummy because it is a "do 
nothing", "no op", "dummy" module, not because it is for dummies. ;-) )
