Re: musl stable 1.1.11[1] / August 30, 2015

Hi@all,

depends on your definition of "stable" ... the musl-libc homepages says: "Mainline - 1.1.12 This series is actively developed but intended for use in production environments as long as appropriate testing is performed, and ..." ... "Stable - 1.0.5 This series does not add new features and avoids changes that might affect building packages against musl or using applications in environments where they are already known to work. It is intended mostly for developers targetting a fixed profile of application software and kernel, such as in embedded development. "

So i personally would like to have 1.1.12 instead of 1.0.5 :-) ... 

Cheers & thx for your work!
   Thorsten
