Wayback 0.2 released!

We are pleased to announce the second Wayback preview release, version 0.2, released!

This one is mainly a small bugfix release. As always, grab it from the GitLab releases page or wait for your distribution to pick it up!

Status

As usual, this remains an alpha-quality release. Read our previous announcement for more details.

That being said some of us are already daily-driving Wayback to fix bugs as needed. We highly recommend testing and reporting bugs, or even fixing them as they appear!

Progress since 0.1

Since 0.1 some bugs have been fixed and some improvements have been made!

wayback-session now uses &argv[1] instead of &argv[optind], this fixes it looping when running wayback-session sesscmd (Thanks dramforever!): !77
Wayback commands now show the version in the command output (Thanks funderscore!): !78
Handle child processes without SIGTERM (Thanks dramforever!): !79
Wayback is now on Gentoo GURU (gui-wm/wayback) and Nixpkgs (wayback-x11 in unstable) (Thanks axtlos and dramforever!)

Remaining work

Many thanks to everybody who got involved in this somewhat small release.

Thanks to the thriving community we keep making lots of progress towards our goal. If you are new to the project and would like to participate, hop in the #wayback IRC channel on Libera.Chat (#wayback:catircservices.org on Matrix) to get started!

There is still a lot to be done before a stable release, so any and all help is welcome, no matter how small.
